February Plans

This year I want to focus on 2 larger pieces and then spend the rest of my stitching time on the series I have started.  The order I stitch them in is going to be determined by the WIPGO Board.  Jessie-Marie calls two numbers each month and those will be the projects I stitch that month. 

In January, the numbers 11 and 20 were called.  These both related to my oldest WIP, the Art Nouveau Head so I made some great progress on that project, finishing here:

stitched on 14 count White Aida

For February, the numbers 7 and 8 were called.  These relate to Cottage Garden Samplings Year in the Woods series and the Art Nouveau Head (again).

I'm currently stitching The Swans for the Year in the Woods and here's where I left off last year:


Here's where I am now, I've got quite a lot done in just five days!

Finally, my evening project will be the Annie Beez 12 Days of Christmas Stockings.  Here is Day 2 so far:

Congratulations on your progress. You are so organised in your stitching. Try as I might I seem to be a one project person. The four currently in progress plus a knitting project weigh heavy on my heart, shoulders and time!

Your swan piece is looking so lovely, Jo! That is such a beautiful series of charts created by Vinniey! Enjoy your weekend :)

Oh, how fun to see the swans again! If that's just 5 days progress, you might get close to a finish this month?

Year in the Woods is such a lovely set of designs. Your progress on the swans is amazing for five days and they're looking so beautiful!
