UFOs Found


While cleaning out a box I found a couple of UFOs - that I think I should start to finish up

These are from the Cross Stitch Calendar Pattern a Day (no longer made and I really miss them)

Turkey


Realized that it's just the background that needs to be done (total fill in), plus a few spots with just one stitch.


Ladybugs



A little more needed on this one.....but nice pattern to work on.

Flower of the Month SAL - January Progress



Well here is my progress - not very far - although I just start on week ago. I haven't been able to stitch every day as I would like.



I noticed that someone had started with the "frame" first and completed that - I wish I had done that first, so that it lays the rest out nicely.

I hope to finish within the first 2 weeks of February. I will be starting February's violets this weekend, so I don't get stuck at the last minute.

Smalls SAL 2015 - January





Well it's the first one of the year and I've completed stitching, but have to do the finishing.

I managed to do the stitching for 2 biscornus

Biscornu #1 - Piggy


Biscornu #2 - Tulips


I'm hoping to have them finished the first part of February.

I have a few of those $1 kits from Joanne's or Michaels that I hope to do for next months smalls.
