Another month has sped by. I continue following my rotation. I did have one small finish early this month. I finished the Bumble ornament. I need to fully finish it so I can give it to my sister for Christmas.
I need to hunt down a nice backing fabric. This motivated me to pull out some magazines and pick other ornaments to stitch up. I have all the floss pulled and just need to get some fabric out of my stash.
Faces of Faery 90 was my focus piece this month. I finished off page 2 and made good progress on page 3 which is very small. This one won't come up in my rotation again this year.
Little Fairies at Play was my weekend project. I started page 17 and put in 2,221 stitches.
My birthday was the end of June and I decided to spend my birthday money on some stash. While looking thru my magazines for ornament patterns I picked out some I wanted to start. So I have been busy kitting up some new starts. Here is some of the stash I bought:
Fabrick for some new starts - a light grey on top, putty to the side and the bottom one is light pink. The picture just is not showing the correct colors.
I got some perforated plastic and paper for ornaments. Some lovely purple krenik for one of my projects.
I caved in and bought a project bag from Garon Bags. I mostly keep my projects in zip lock bags. I did buy a second project bag from an Etsy seller and forgot to take a picture of it. I will post it next month.
Here is floss for some of the projects and fabric I bought just because I liked the colors - opalescent Mint Green and Opalescent white.
I think 2020 might be the year of new starts which will mean coming up with a new rotation plan to make progress on all of my wips.
Measi's question this month is how do I get myself out of a stitching slump. I enjoy looking at other stitchers projects and eventually that gets me going again.
With that being said I am off to see what everyone has accomplished this month!
