WIPocalypse is hosted by Measi's Musings
Each month we have to share the projects we want to complete before the End Of The World.
Since 2011 I have chosen a number of projects to focus on that year, starting with my "11 in '11" and increasing to "19 in '19" for this year. You can find the full list here.
This month I stitched on three of my list:
1. Discworld Mappe by Lyndisfarne Designs

Measi always gives us a topic to discuss too.
August - What do you have on your stitching bucket list? (for example, specific projects, designers, fibers, etc)
I think the key word here is "more". I want to stitch more of everything! All my Just Nan samplers, more 3D designs, a Hallowe'en Village, a load of Mirabilia and Nora Corbetts, more Brooke's Books witches and cakes, finish every series I have started. You get the idea?
This is one of the cute 3D designs on my Bucket List:
Isn't it cute? There is a whole Christmas Village.
Ellie Jenks also has a whole village called Brightsea Village, complete with Haunted House:
I would like to go on another retreat but unless someone organises one in my home town, that's unlikely!

Or maybe I want to furnish a Doll's House?

Finally:
All the postcards except one have been sent out in the Summer Postcard Blog Hop. I am saving that one in case I get a last minute entry!
More great progress Jo. I love the book shop and looked at the other designs. Could these be stitched and just framed or do they have to be made up like she shows?

Great bucket list! I am working on a Janet Granger miniature rug. The three projects you are working on this month are progressing nicely. The Just Nan piece is really pretty.
ReplyDeleteGreat progress on all of these, love seeing the list!
ReplyDeleteYour stitching is looking wonderful .
ReplyDeleteLove the bucket list too.
Oh dear, you shouldn't have linked to Living On The Rainbow - the Christmas series is gorgeous and so different. I can see why they are on your Bucket List.
ReplyDeleteGreat progress with WIPocalypse too. Slowly but surely... :)
Great progress on the big projects.
ReplyDeleteThat little book shop is adorable, and so "you"
Wonderful progress on all of your lovely stitches Jo. I really like the one with the needlework items. That is so up my alley. Discmap is so amazing and it keeps growing wonderfully. And I always love your Just Nan stitches. Those little villages are fabulous...love them. What a lovely post to read today. I've been gone this last week at a reunion with our six best friends from college. So today I'm catching up with all my blogging buddies. Hope your week is going well. RJ@stitchingfriendsforever
ReplyDeleteI have the same idea. Just keep stitching. Love the 3D pieces. I remember the lighthouse you shared with me. Oh to have time to do everything calling my name.
ReplyDeleteA great bucket list. I do love that little haunted house! I have never stitched a 3-D project.
ReplyDeleteGreat progress, the sewing tools look so close to being finished. I think I'd really like to stitch on of these 3D thingies as well!
ReplyDeleteGreat bucket list! I am in love with the little 3D bookshop in particular x
ReplyDeleteGreat progress, the Mappe is really coming together.
ReplyDeleteFun bucket list, I really like the Haunted House and might have to look into that! The doll house is just precious. I hope you get to them all!
