Then today, I've met my February goal for Her Private Garden with  2138 tent/1069 full x stitches, making it 8.02% complete.

I think I'm seeing a couple of page finishes coming in March.

Next, I'm going to work on the next line of personalization on Heritage Sampler.

1/22/26

It didn't take as long as I thought it would to meet my goal for SS Daybreak this month as I thought it would.  Yay block stitching!

 I didn't add a lot to SS Daybreak to meet my Oct/Nov goals with 2026 tent/1013 full x stithches and 3.42% complete, but I did make it across page 4 so counting next month will hopefully be optional.

Warrior Alice is out next.

11/10/25

 

I've finished page three of SS Daybreak from HAED, now 3.38% complete.

Thankfully, this tree, at least in this row of pages is complete and the next page is mostly one color of block stitching.  There's not a lot of this month's goal left to go so I'll at least get page 4 set up so counting will be optional.

10/22/25

 

I picked SS Daybreak back up yesterday and added 1054 stitches to meet my September goal.  It's now 3.15% complete.

I'm really hoping to finish page 3 next month and get away from those trees and into pages of sky.

Best Friends MC is out now.

10/19/25

 Since my last update, I've met a couple goals.

I've finally finished band 8 of Loara Standish

front

and back

I've met my August goal for SS Daybreak with 1036 tent/518 full x stitches and 3.01% complete

I started Hagatha's Orange Hat from Just Nan on 10/17/25

And I had a stitchy day yesterday with a couple of friends and we stitched on Lady of the Flag.  It was a new start for them but I pulled out my WIP instead of starting Queen of Freedom.

 This month, I added 2216 tent/1108 full x stitches as I work to catch myself up to meet my goal for SS Daybreak.  It's now 2.87% complete.

Loneliness of Autumn is out next.

8/16/25

 I've met my goal for this month on SS Daybreak and am slowly catching back up for this year.  

I've added 2068 tent/1034 full cross stitches bringing me up to 2.58% complete.

There's still some tree in page 3 but I'm hoping it stitches up much faster since most of the page is sky.

Warrior Alice is out next.  The White Rabbit's head will be finished this month!

8/15/25

 Last night, I finished page 2 of SS Daybreak.  It's  now 2.48% complete.

It's been a long time coming.  I went back through this blog and checked.  I finished page 1 on 12/20/2015.  So not quite 10 years for page 2.  I'm hoping to pick up the pace just a bit.

SS Daybreak is staying out just a little longer.  I've finished the goal for one month, but I'm still behind so I'm hoping to finish the goal for a second month tonight or tomorrow.

7/28/25

 I'm still behind on my goal for SS Daybreak but I've added another 1006 tent/503 full x stitches

I was hopeful I would be able to finish page two but it wasn't going to happen.  Maybe the next time I pull it out.

Ann Tong Uffindell is out next for at least 500 stitches

6/25/25

 Last night I completed February's goal for SS Daybreak with 1026 tent/513 full x stitches and reached 2.17% complete.
