.

I had lots of help 

Loneliness of Autumn will remain out to finish the remaining 3500 stitches.

 November goal met for Loneliness of Autumn with 5128 tent/2564 full x stitches and 95.92% complete. 

4844 stitches to go in December. 

SS Daybreak is out next.

 Last night, I finished pages 27 and 33 of Loneliness of Autumn which brought it to 93.35% complete

10/12/25

 I've hit a couple of pretty big milestones on Loneliness of Autumn.  It is now 99.61% complete and there are only 9972 stitches to go.

I've pulled out my Fall Pumpkin Patch for some easy stitching.

10/11/25

 I've finished page 26 and 32 of Loneliness of Autumn.  It's now 89.24% complete.

I'm not done working on this one yet.  I've completed 2372 tent/1186 full x stitches so far this month.  To leave just 5000 tent stitches per month for November and December, I need to add another 2780 tent stitches which should put me just over 5000 tent stitches for October.  My house will be quiet for the next week or so which means my stitchy time has increased just a bit.  In a perfect world, I could get all those stitches done this weekend but I'm probably going to continue a bit into next week.

I have been making a little progress on Loara too.  I would really love to get band 8 finished this weekend too.

My Fall Pumpkin Patch has gotten a little attention during breaks at work.  I've had my stand set up on my desk and have added a few stitches, 10 minutes at a time.

I didn't quite meet my original goal for Loneliness of Autumn this month.  But my stopping point resulted in only having 15,152 stitches remaining with means I only have to add about 5051 tent stitches in October, November and December to see a finish.  While I'm excited to see a finish, I'm ready to take a break since I've added 5394 tent stitches already this month and I've only got about 300 left to actually meet my goal.  I'm going to call it a win and move on.

I was debating picking up Loara or Alice again since I haven't actually met my goal on either one of them this month.  I spun a wheel and pulled Loara.  So she's out now and I'd really like to get at least another flower stitched if not all of them and all the other bits and pieces in this bank in the next day or so before I put her away.

 

9/17/25

 I've finished pages 25 and 31 of Loneliness of Autumn which brings it to 85.81% complete.  Ive also passed 100,000 stitches into this project. 

I have another 2000ish tent stitches left to meet my stitch goal for this project.

8/12/25

 August's goal is met for The Loneliness of Autumn with 5698 tent/2849 full x stitches and 82.71% complete.

I'm so close to the lower left corner but still not quite there.  The stitches that were left to meet my monthly goal went super quick with lots of block stitching which are uncommon in this WIP.

SS Daybreak is up next.  I would love to see a page finish this month.

8/11/25

Sunday, I finished pages 24 and 25 of Loneliness of Autumn which made it 81.28% complete.

By the end of the night, I'd added a bunch more stitches and got to 81.67%

Does anyone else ever decide they don't want to watch anything new to them?  So you pull up a movie you've watched a bunch of times so you can just listen while you stitch?

 If I'd only realized I met my goal with page 22, I would have rotated then.  Instead, I added another length of 939 and got started on page 23/24.

My June goal for Loneliness of Autumn was met with 5840 tent/2920 full x stitches and 77.91% complete.

Warrior Alice is out next for her June stitches

 Page 22 of Loneliness of Autumn and 77.8% complete

7/7/25

 I've met my June goal for Sea Witch with 1136 tent/568 full x stitches.  It is now 38.31% complete.

After Sea Witch, Loneliness of Autumn came out.  Saturday, I finished page 21 which saw 74.04% complete.

And last night saw me make it to 75.54% complete.

I'm almost hoping to finish page 22 with June stitches.

6/23/25

 Last night, I finally met my June goal for Loneliness of Autumn with 5932 tent/2966 full cross stitches and 73% complete

 I thought about just finishing the page but I couldn't bring myself to do it.  It was time to move on.  

SS Daybreak came out next.  I would love to be able to get more than my 1000 tent stitch goal since there were several months I didn't pick it up, but I would be happy with just the 1000 tent stitches since the trees are high confetti.

Chatelaine's Polar Mandala is coming out next to add it's 2025 stitches. 

4/23/25

 Yesterday, I finished pages 17/18 of Loneliness of Autumn as charted by Love Thy Thread.  It's now 61.81% complete with two full rows of pages and a small partial row to go.

I haven't met my April goal yet but I did make a start on page 19 last night and you can now see the start of the bench.  Most of it is in page 20 but I finished off my thread so I can see where it is.

3/24/25

 Saturday morning, I met my March goal for The Loneliness of Autumn.  We were approximately here

But I decided that there weren't that many stitches left and I could just finish page 16.

Ha!

About 1600 tent stitches later, I finished page 16.  It's now 58.3% complete.

Feathers in the Wind from Tilton Crafts is out now.
