November WIPocalypse

 Here is what I worked on this month:


Autumn Sampler was worked on for 2 days

Crane Paradise.  Finished the middle crane and started on the next one.  Lots of white and greys so it is hard to see the progress.  I am hoping to finish this one in 2024.

Dandelion Fairy Kingdom.  I try and stitch on this one daily.  I still have some places to fill in on page 18.  Hoping to finish this page today.

Gnomes. I almost have the first Gnome done. This is a piece of fabric that I coffee tea dyed myself.  It is showing pretty close to the true color.

Hedge Hog.  Found I made a counting error in the top portion.  I am not going to take it out since this is acrylic threads from the kit.  I am worried I will not have enough to complete it.  So I will try and fix it as I go.

Homestead Harvest.  I took this one off the scroll rods a few months ago.  The fabric is really soft and it was hard to keep it taut in the scroll rod. Using my hoop for now.  Looks much better from a distance.

What a Hoot Owl Teapot.  The colors are much brighter in person.  Hope to have this one finished in early 2024.


 

Butterfly Fairy Night.  I went to my LNS this month and got the missing threads.  I am continuing to plug away on this one.

Gathering Pinecones.  I put 110 more stitches into this one.  It is my oldest WIP.

To Everything There is a Season.  I finished this one on 11/4/23.  It is my 8th finish for the year.  I love the colors in this one.  It used some DMC Variations thread.  I am not normally a sampler person but I did enjoy this one.

Give Thanks to God Sampler (another sampler for someone who does not normally stitch samplers)  Getting closer to a finish on this one.

I still have 5 days left in November to stitch (counting today).  I hope to work on a few more of my WIPs that I have not touched yet this month.

I am also busy preparing my projects for Brringo in January with the Magazine Monthly Cross Stitch facebook group.

Beautiful work on everything. Enjoy getting things ready for the January challenge. I don't stitch a lot from magazines. Is that a requirement for that group?

Well done on your progress on so many different works. Can't wait to see a big picture of your Crane Paradise. xxx
