Growth Rings from Ink Circles progress

I'm off work for a few days and have He Came With the Rain out.  Don't know how far I'll get  or if I'll rotate to another project tomorrow.

 Plague Doctor has been out for some visible progress.


That's much better than having to frog all of Mt progress. 

Jane Charlotte Wynn 1835 was up next.

 Since I'm struggling to stick with projects after I complete my 2023 goals, I've been pulling out WIPs at random to stitch a few stitches and at least touch them this year.

Progress on Winter Rose Garden


Then Pour La Fete

I've pulled Plague Doctor out of time out and I've added 100 or so tent stitches that seem to be in the right spot this time.  Chart pages from Unconventional XStitch aren't as big as other design companies so I don't know how far I'll get before I rotate again.

 Chatelaine's Polar Mandala wasn't out as long as I'd hoped but I added almost 1100 stitches.


Then Ann Tong Uffindell from HATS  came out.  My original goal was page 2 but I couldn't face the iver 1 on 46ct so I added a bunch of border instead.

Now I have Winter Rose Manor by Brenda Gervais out and this has to be one of the smallest starts I've made.

On 8/11/23 for World Cross Stitch Day, I started Serenity Harbor from By The Bay Needlearts.  It's stitched on 40ct HDF linen with DMC



I probably would have made it further, but I needed to move it on the qsnaps to center it but then it just came off to rotate to Sarah Redfearn from The Scarlett House.

I didn't make a huge amount of progress, but the flowers in the border are finished for the first page so the next time it's out, I should be able to finish it.


I've added 716 stitches to Mermaid of the Deep SK to complete my monthly stitching goal.  She's now 76.1% complete.


Now, Polar Mandala from Chatelaine is out.  I'm still working on that over one center and am considering adding part 1 to my planned 2024 finishes.

 The Loneliness of Autumn was only out for one day and I had a book that was keeping my attention so I only added a few stitches, but page 7 is started.


Yesterday, Master came back out for it's August stitches and I've finished page 19.

He looks awesome!  

He's now at 70.3% complete
