IHSW or International Hermit and Stitch Weekend always starts on the third Friday of the month. It's a chance to lock yourself away and focus on your stitching for the weekend. You can take part on your blog or via the Facebook page - IHSW on Facebook.
As usual, I worked on Friday so the only thing that got stitched that day was my Amanda Butler Belfast Houses project, with evening stitching it now looks like this:
stitched on 28 count grey evenweave
On Saturday morning I put some more stitches into the Fire Element from Circle Cross:
stitched on 28 count sky blue evenweave from Silkweaver
And then did my final day on Halloween at Hawk Run Hollow for March:
stitched over one on 25 count Cassia Rose evenweave from Chromatic Alchemy
On Sunday morning, I added some more bottles to my Temperature SAL from Stitch It Picasso:
stitched over 1 on 25 count tea-dyed evenweave
In the afternoon I had a new start! The WIPGO Board chose this one for me. Nora Corbett's Taurus, stitched on Taurus from Sparklies!
stitched on 32 count Taurus Murano from Sparklies
Finally the next IHSW will be 21st - 23rd April so make sure you note the date in your diary or come and join us in the Facebook Group - IHSW on Facebook. If you don't do Facebook then you can check in here by leaving a comment on my post.
Wow! You have many projects on the go.

I found your page recently, totally by accident, but have become a fan. But please! What is SAL?
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderfully productive weekend you had! Love the new start, that fabric is to dye for.
