WIPocalypse is hosted by Measi's Musings
And now for the progress report:
So far this month I've worked on five of the main 16 and four of the series list. Although there is one overlap there!
Here are the main projects:
6. Poinsettia Cottage by CCN - Finished
8. Book of Spells by The Goode Huswif - WIP
11. Elizabeth Shephard by The Scarlet Letter - WIP
13. C by Nora Corbett - WIP
16. Counting Bats by Just Nan - WIP
And the series:
1. Christmas Cubes by Primitive Hare - WIP
6. Stitcher's Alphabet by Brooke's Books - WIP
14. 12 Days of Christmas by Plum Street Samplers - Finished
15. Alphabet Fairies by Nora Corbett - see above
Each month we have to share the projects we want to complete before the End Of The World. Measi always gives us a topic to discuss too.
January - Introduce yourself, your projects, and any goals you have for the year!
I think you all know who I am by now! The focus of my WIPocalypse will be my "16 in '16" which are 16 projects I particularly wanted to focus on in 2016. The full list can be found on my WIPocalypse page where you can also find my secondary list "16 Series in '16".
My main goal is to keep to my rotation of one small every Friday and the rest of the month working on my focus piece until it is finished. I also have a number of SALs I want to keep up with:
The Alphabet Club - a different letter on the first Saturday of each month
Gifted Gorgeousness - post anything gifted on the 15th
Hallowe'en Ornie Blog - a different spooky theme each month
Christmas Ornie Blog - a different festive theme each month
Smalls SAL - last Thursday of each month

Finally, a little bit more About Me - I run a number of Blog Hops throughout the year. Open to old friends and new bloggers alike. The next one will be the Secret Stitching Sweetheart on Valentine's Day. Full details can be found on this post but basically you email me a photo of something suitable for a lovely friend and I send you a photo from a mystery friend which you post on your blog to wait for your Secret Stitching Sweetheart to find you from the list of participants on my blog. Have a look at last year's Hop to see how it all worked:

I love the Elizabeth Shephard project. Looking forward to seeing that one finished.

There are some lovely pieces in those lists. I'm intrigued by the stitchers alphabet and I'm looking forward to watching ES grow over the year. I think it appeals to the blackworker in me.
ReplyDeleteYou stitch such a variety of projects to keep yourself and us entertained! You've made good progress. Now looking forward to seeing what you stitch on next! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree. Elizabeth Shephard is so lovely.

ReplyDeleteI see progress on the G even without a close-up. Good to see Elizabeth and Spells - they are such wonderful pieces.
