10/4/26

 I've made some very nice progress on two WIPs so far this month.

I've added 1431 stitches to Pledge of Allegiance from Plum Street Samplers, setting it up for what should be a December finish.


Yesterday, I finished page 6 of SS Daybreak from HAED, bringing it to 6.38% complete.  I doubt you can see where, white on white does that.


Today, I've met my October goal with 2144 tent/1072 full x stitches and 6.57% complete.

Sea Witch is next for it's October stitches.

 I've had a good end of September.  

I've added 1003 stitches to Il Bosco di Bengsston


I've added 527 stitches to Chatelaine's Evening in the Park

and 523 stitches to Long Dog's Game of Swannes

Now, I'm headed back to my monthly stitches.  First up is Pledge of Allegiance from Plum Street.

I've met my additional goal for Blue Moroccan lace and added another 605 stitches that were all border.  I discovered I'm missing another gold color so I need to find it in another kit or order some which could be a challenge.


Then Polar Mandala came out.  I added another 1070 stitches.

I really need to decide to switch from 1x1 full x to 2x1 tent or pull it out a whole lot more to get part 1 finished.

Il bosco di Bengtsson is next.

 Friday, I completed page 4 of Feathers in the Wind and also reached 19.34% complete


Saturday, I met my next goal for her with 1034 tent/517 full x stitches and 19.74% complete.

The Forgotten from Charting Creations, was out next and I've met my goal for it with 1146 tent/573 full x and 16.89% complete.

I have Chatelaine's Blue Moroccan Lace ready to go now.  I think I'm going to work on adding some of the metallic border to get a better idea how big this one is and to be able to work on different sections.

 I've added stitches to Orange Hagatha's Hat.  But there are so many color changes and it's on Weeks original fabric base so it's a challenge.

I added 230 stitches to the cone of the hat with more to come.


Then, I pulled out Mirabilia's Snow Queen and added 390 stitches.

Now, I've started back on my oldest WIP outside of the ones that I work on every month, Feathers in the Wind from Tilton Crafts.  I should have a page finish in the next day or so since I'm within a couple of hundred stitches of it.

 I'm starting to get excited about starting with my oldest WIPs again and seeing how far I can get through them again this year.

But first, I need to finish meeting my last couple of goals on the WIPs I haven't touched yet.

I met my goal for Away We Ride yesterday.  I'm still second guessing myself on converage, but I think it will be ok the way it is.

I met this goal with 520 stitches.


Hagatha's Orange Hat from Just Nan is out next.  I'm getting very close to finishing the cone of the hat so I can move over to the brim.

Here's where I started

I've already made some pretty good progress this morning so lets see where it takes us.
