 Oh what fun I have when I'm home alone with nothing that needs to be done.

Yesterday, I finished page 34 of Warrior Alice with 81.67% complete

And today, I've met my May goal with 4112 tent/2056 full x stitches and 82.25% complete

Pour Ta Fete from Lindsay lane Designs is out next.

4/14/26

 I've reached my stitch goal for Warrior Alice with 4064 tent/2032 full x stitches, 79.49% complete and page 33 complete.

Heritaage Sampler is out next.

3/8/26

 I've met my March goal and completed 4038 tent/2019 full x stitches for Warrior Alice which brings her to 76.77% complete.

SS Daybreak is out next.

3/6/26

Monday, I met my March goal for Harriett Godhard from HATS with 683 stitches

Today, I've completed page 31 of Warrior Alice with 74.31% complete.

2/15/26

 I had an awesome stitchy day yesterday.  I added 2440 tent stitches which meant I completed my February goal for Warrior Alice with 4100 tent/2050 full x stitches and 74.06% complete.

Could I have finished page 31?  Yes, I probably could have but it was late and I was ready to rotate to Chatelaine's Hawaiian Garden.

2/13/25

 Page 30 of Warrior Alice.  She's now 72% complete.

1/16/26

 I've finally met my January goal for Warrior Alice with 4002 tent/2001 full x stitches and 71.3% complete.  I didn't quite complete page 30 but it will be waiting for me in February.

Her Private Garden is back out now.  I have adjusted my original goal for this one and Sea Witch.  I was originally planning on 4000 tent stitches per month and I don't think I can add so many and meet all my other goals this year.  Maybe I'll get adjusted to going into the office 3x per week and my stitch counts will go up and I can re-adjust my goal.

 Page 29 of Warrior Alice has been a little slow.  I've worked remote for the last five years which has given me an extra 30 minutes before and after work to stitch.  Now, the powers that be have decided it's necessary to work in the office three days per week and that has definitely cut into my stitchy time along with the whole peopling thing.  It's hard on my poor introverted heart.

But, I've managed to finish page 29 and she's now 70.17% complete.

12/16/25

I've added another 1230 tent/615 full x stitches to Warrior Alice who is now at 68.62% complete.  Could I have completed my monthly goal of 2000 tent stitches?  Yes.  But when I picked Alice back up this week I had already met my 2025 goal and didn't want to make my stitchy bug any unhappier than it already is.

Since I finished Loneliness of Autumn, I've also started March's Window View in Stitches from Stitches and Cutz as a shop model for Hearltland Quilting and Stitching.  

I haven't gotten as far as I would like but I kept catching myself scrolling the internet so it was time to move onto something else.

This morning I started adding some stitches to Her Private Garden.  I think that annual goal has already been met as well so anything else is just a bonus.

 

11/16/25

 I've finished page 28 of Warrior Alice and met my November stitch goal for her with 2340 tent/1170 full x stitches and 67.79% complete.

I doubt I'll get another page finished this year but there are way few stitches left to finish in 2026.

10/5/25

I've met my October goal for Warrior Alice with 2080 tent /1040 full x stitches and 66.22% complete

Loara Standish is back out now as I attempt to finish band 8.  I only have three more leaves and three flowers to fill in.  I'm very excited to move onto another band.

 

9/23/25

 I've completed the other half of my goal for Warrior Alice with an additional 1014 tent/507 full x stitches for a total of 2160 tent/1080 full x stitches in September.  She is now 64.83% complete.

Plague Doctor from Unconventional XStitch is out next.

9/7/25

 I've met my  September goal for Warrior Alice with 1146 tent/ 573 full x stitches for 64.15% complete.

Sea Witch is next.  Ishould be getting very close to a page finish.

8/20/25

 I've met my August goal for Warrior Alice with page 26 and 2296 tent/1148 full x stitches.

Her Private Garden is out next.

7/17/25

 Last night, I finished page 25 of Warrior Alice.  I could have stopped before the page finish, but you know, the page finish seemed important.

I met my July goal for Alice with 2648 tent/1324 full x stitches and 61.84% complete.

Her Private Garden is out now for 1000 tent stitches.

6/7/25

 Yesterday, I met my June goal for Warrior Alice with 2050 tent/1025 full x stitches and 60.06% complete

Sea Witch came out next and I've met my June goal with 1042 tent/521 full x stitches for 37.91% complete.

Chatelaine's Heritage Sampler is out next.

5/12/25

 I met my goal on Warrior Alice Saturday.

But, I thought I was so close to finishing page 24, I thought it would be quick to bang out those stitches and move to the next project.  Ha!  1010 tent stitches later, Page 24 is complete.

Alice is now 58.68% complete.

Sea Witch is out next and most of the 1000 tent stitches will probably be in the black background.

4/12/25

 Last night, I finished pagr 23 of Warrior Alice and completed my April stitches goal for her with 2684 tent/1342 full x stitches which brought her to 56.62% complete.

Her Private Garden is coming out next for her April stitches.

4/7/25

 I got to spend lots of time this weekend with Chatelaine's Heritage Sampler and added 1573 stitches.

I'd planned on trying to finish this row but hit a wall and couldn't.  It will come out again in May.

Warrior Alice came out for her April progress.  I added 216 tent/108 full x stitches so far.

3/10/25

 Saturday evening, I met my March goal with 2244 tent/1122 full x stitches.

I decided since there wasn't a huge amount of page 22 left, I wanted to complete it before moving onto my next project.

Yesterday, I added 776 tent/388 full x stitches, finishing page 22 and bringing this project up to 54.82% complete.

Hawaiian Garden Mandala is up for it's 500 stitches today.
