April 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 March, the numbers 9 and 24  were called.  These relate to Mirabilia's Fairy Idyll and the Art Nouveau Head (again).

Here's how Fairy Idyll looks after adding some bed flounces and rabbit to the right hand side:

This is where I finished the Head for the month:

For April, the numbers 4 and 10 were called.  These relate to Nora Corbett's Evanora and Cricket Collection's Summer - two new starts!

I decided to start Evanora first as I had the fabric for her ready:

She will coordinate with Claire who I stitched last year:



This is the cover photo for Summer:



Finally, my evening project will be the Annie Beez 12 Days of Christmas Stockings.  Here is Day 4 so far:

Oh, after all the progress on the big projects, some new starts! How fun! Evanora looks like some fun relaxing stitching. (Fun fact - my grandma's name is Eva, and I used to go by Nora...maybe I should stitch her!)
