November WIPocalypse

 This month's WIPocalypse question is: Question of the Month:  Which specialty stitches do you find easy? Which ones do you find extremely difficult or are too nervous to try?

I don't like specialty stitches.  I have a hard time looking at how to diagrams.  I am left handed and can never get my stitches to look like the charted ones.

Here is what I worked on this month:

 

For the Magazine Monthly Acrostic I worked on:

  

Suncatchers
 

 Stock Car #3
 

 Raccoon Teapot and I also took it with me to Michigan for a quick overnight trip
 

Funky Cat
 

Butterfly Fairy Night and I kept it out until I finished it on 11/21/25.
I started it on 9/11/14 and I am glad it is done as I struggled with it.  I think because of all the mistakes
I will eventually make it into a pillow.  I have the Day one done and that one only took 2 years.
 
Then I worked on the following projects:
 

QS Porthole of Fantasy working away on page 2.
 

QS Magic Island top of page 7
 

More of page 7 after I moved the scroll rods
 
Hello Autumn

Autumn Sampler

Queen of the Sea

Magazine Monthly Challenge had a pop up event - 2025 Turkey Trot.  You had to stitch on a piece with a bird on it and put in at least 500 stitches.  I chose Owl Faces and made good progress on it.  Added 1,061 stitches

 
I also bought 2 patterns from Pigeon Coop Designs.  They had a sale.
 

 


For December I will be working on the Magazine Monthly Acrostic, my two full coverage pieces and whatever else I get the urge to stitch on.
