August WIPocalypse

 This month's question that Measi who runs WIPocalypse gives us is:  Have you participated in any of the mystery SALs on Facebook (or other social media)? What do you think makes a successful mystery SAL?

I have done 2 mystery stitch a longs -BOINK from Ink Circles and I did finish it and a Barbara Anna mystery stitch a long.  I finished that one too.   I did enjoy both stitch a longs.  I think I was pulled into them by wanting to be one of the crowd.  I have not done any since them  But do enjoy watching others progress on their SALS

 

This Month I had a finish Toadilly Romantic.  I finished this one on 8/6/20.



I enjoyed stitching this one on the pink fabric and the different threads from what I normally use.  There is a scissor fob that goes with it and I think I will do that one also.  I still have plenty of pink fabric.



I worked more on the border of Cow Slip.  This past weekend we went to Michigan to a car museum and aquarium and I took this project to work on.  Still more border to do.



I finished page 3 and started page 4 of Dandelion Fairy Kingdom.  3,000 stitches.  Happy with my progress on this one.  



Faces of Faery 90 was also worked on.  I am going slowly o this one so that I do not make any large counting errors.  




While in Michigan we went to an Antique Mall and I found this Teresa Wentzler kit.  It was 40% off and I got it for under $7.  It has 27 count even weave.  I am doing Butterfly Fairy Night on even weave and struggle to work on it.  But I am going to give this one a go and see what happens.


Here are my orts.  Very colorful.


I am still working from home.  Not sure when I will go back.  I will be glad if I can stay home during the winter and avoid driving in the snow.
