February WIPocalypse SALs and some Pie

   

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 "21 in '21" for this year.  This month I stitched on 6 of them and had 2 finishes, plus a goal met for the year.  Because the two blocks on the Joan Elliott SAL stitched up so quick I might extend that goal to all four small blocks.

Measi always gives us a topic to discuss too.

February - What stitch-a-longs (SALs) are you participating in this year?

I have these blog-based SALs as well as the WIPocalypse

The People's Choice - posts on the first Saturday of each month - theme in sidebar
Fully Finished Gallery - show anything you have FFO'd on the 10th
Gifted Gorgeousness - post anything gifted on the 15th
Smalls SAL - last Friday of each month
The TUSAL - post on the New Moon each month

I am also taking part in WIPGO on Facebook as well as two Christmas Ornament SALs - one from Just Cross Stitch and one from The Gift of Stitching.  In addition I host a Just Nan Sampler SAL every 2-3 months on the JN FB group.  We are currently stitching Winter Blues and will move on to Nan's Garden on 1st April.

Rachel and Tiff are organising Mischievious March this year which I have decided will be renamed The March of the Mischievious Mice as I will be stitching four different Just Nan Mice.  I have kits for three and the chart for the fourth.  Luckily I managed to source some tails and butts from eBay!  I must add they were not marketed as Mouse Butts.

Now for Pie:

Look at that, all WIPocalypse projects!  How disciplined.

Finally, something which is not so disciplined - my Stitch from Stash figures!

But I checked the calendar and saw that Mother's Day is only two weeks away so the charts will be my present.  Thanks son!
