 I've had a good weekend and have met my goal on three more WIPs.

Come Into My Garden got 580 stitches

Out now is The Loneliness of Autumn 

9/19/23

 I've been happily stitching away and have met some goals.

The Forgotten from Charting Creations has gotten some love.  Not as much as I would have liked but I put it on my q-snaps and just wasn't feeling it.  Something else was calling.

Next was Sarah Elizabeth Brooke from The Scarlett House.  1x1 on 40ct is something else.  But there's less of it for next time.

Then Sarah Breazier from HATS.  I added two pages and finished out the top row.

She's a big girl!

 

Then Jane Fiddes also from HATS came out.  Again not a lot of love but she got a little progress.

This morning, I pulled out Warrior Alice from Eclectic Bloke (OOP).  Instead of starting on page 8, where I left off, I started on page 12 on the far right, in the background.  I'm not ready for the confetti in Alice's dress so background it is.

 Page 5 of Sarah Braizear is done.  I had considered working to the end of the row but couldn't do it so she was put away.

Il Bosco di Bengtsson came out next and I've made a little progress but 46ct navy is a bit of a challenge.  Here's my current progress

I did have to frog a little of that bush since I was half a stitch off and it was pretty obvious up next to the tree.  I'll come back to it after the tree is in

 M. Woods 1759 from Milady's Needle came out last week.  I'd struggled with the lightest color in this conversion because it just didn't show up on my fabric.  So I ordered the called for AVAS 100.3.  When I tried it, oy worked so I kept stitching and ended up meeting my goal for this year plus some.

Friday was the start of a challenge with Full Coverage Fanatics on Facebook so Sea Witch came out.  Sadly, I only added 21 stitches.  

 I moved onto Sarah Breazier from HATS.  I felt this one.  Page 4.

4/4/21

 

Page 3 of Sarah Braizear is complete.  

I've pulled her off the qsnaps so I need to go figure out what to work on next.

3/28/21

 I struggled to focus on Sarah Braizear this week until about Thursday.   Saturday was taken up by a track meet and it was too cold and windy to consider taking her.

I finished page 2 tonight. 

I'm kind of sad I'm not planning to do all the satin stitches until the end.  But it will be lovely when it's done.  Sarah will stay out for now.  I'm hoping to finish page 3 and meet my goal for this year.  After that, we'll see.

1/6/20

Last Wednesday morning I'd planned to start Sarah Breazier from Hands Across the Sea and was sidetracked by a blackwork SAL I hadn't seen before on Facebook.  When I saw how small the finished design was, resistance went out the window.

2020 SAL from Peppermint Purple with HDF on 32ct Poseidon from Chromatic Alchemy

Once that was done, I started Sarah

2x1 with DMC on 46ct custom dyed fabric from xJuDesigns

I finished page 1 before I put her away to pull out Earth Song.
