Chatelaine's Heritage Sampler has been out for progress towards my 2023 goal to finish. I completed two more bands in the central part.

Airships and Floating Castle is still out and will probably remain out until I finish page 2 in the next couple of days.
The first airship is coming in and while the colors aren't what I expected, it's starting to look pretty good.

Over the last couple of nights, I've added 849 stitches to Mermaid of the Deep SK and met my goal on it for January.
Next, I've pulled out Airships and Floating Castle (OOP) from Tilton Crafts to work on for maybe a page finish.
I think my goal on it for this year is to just add some stitches which I've done. But, we'll see how far I get after a few pages. I would like to get some stitching into Chatelaine's Heritage Sampler this month as well so I'll just have to see where I get.

I met my January Goal for The Master today. I've added 9162 tent stitches which equal 4581 full cross for 28.82% complete.
I'm putting this away until February. I really don't want to burn out on this so I can finish this year.
Next up is another old WIP that I'm trying to finish but it is much smaller. This is Mermaid of the Deep SK. It was a SAL on the old HAED BB in 2010, I think.
I only want to add about 500 stitches this month which should be easy enough to do and move onto another WIP

Today, I've finished page 7 of The Master. I'm going to keep this out until I've stitched about 9000 tent stitches this month.

I've spent a couple of days of Steamy Blue so far this month and I've finished the 939 on page 1. This page isn't very big but I couldn't count.
The Master has also come out. Since I want to finish it this year, I need to add at around 9000 tent stitches per month. Doable and if I have more days like I've had this weekend, I should happen fairly quickly.
I plan to keep this out until I reach my monthly goal.

On 1/1/23 I started Cock-a-doodle-doo from Little House Needleworks. I only stitched the border.
When I picked this back up, I completed Farm Folk on 1/2 and tonight I've finished Cock-a-doodle-doo.
I debated about adding the free border but I think, at least for now, I'm going to leave it off.
