This month's question is: How do you begin planning for the next year with your stitching? Tell us your process. I try and pick some projects from my WIPs that I want to finish. In 2024 I want to finish Crane Paradise, Gathering Pinecones and Butterfly Fairy Night. Any new starts or working on certain projects will be based on the groups I belong to and the challenges I decide to participate in.
Here is what I stitched on this month:
I worked on Autumn Sampler for 2 days. I think I am going to try and give each project I touch in the month at least 2 days so I can see some progress. One day is just not enough.
Crane Paradise was worked on for one day.
Dandelion Fairy Kingdom is my focus piece and gets worked on during the day. I didn't get to work on it every day in October but did work on it 12 days so far.
Sari Doll I worked on for 3 days in October.
Hedge Hog Kit I worked on for one day. Got into some of the blends. I enjoyed this one and hope to pull it out again in November.
Hello Autumn was worked on one day in October.
Butterfly Fairy Night. I think I am finally getting into the groove of stitching on evenweave. But all of my previous mistakes need to be worked around. I ran out of a color and when I stopped in Michaels they were out of it too. Walmart did not have any DMC anymore. So this one has been put aside until I go to my LNS.
I finished Owl #6 on 10/18/23. I just need to add the baby's info when it is born.
Princess & the Dragon I worked on for 2 days.
To Everything There is a Season - I worked on this one for 6 days. I am close to a finish and hope to have it done before the year end.
Finishing up leaf raking and then we will hunker down for the winter. I hope to get more stitching in. I just need to make a list of needed floss and get to my LNS and pick them up.
