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.
Last year I did my A-Z Challenge for IHSW with mixed success. I actually forgot it a couple of times! But I did manage to work on all my WIPs across the year so I count that as a result.
This year I am going to attempt International Hermit and Blackwork. I do love blackwork and have a couple of projects I want to try fit in to my rotation without being on the WIPGO Board.
The first is the Temperature Tree from The Steady Thread:
stitched on 28 count Meadow Mist linen from Silkweavers
I want to finish this one this weekend. There are only a few leaves and that corner of the border left.
The second WIP is also from The Steady Thread and is the Halloween Bookshelf:
stitched on 30 count tea-dyed linen
Finally, for later in the year, I would love to start the Alice in Wonderland Adventale from Circle Cross:
