Wipocalypse #8

Hi All,

Here is my progress for this month :)
Piper Tir N Org last time

This time

And the fab Miss Izzy last time

this time

This months question is- Who is your favorite person to stitch for, or do you prefer to keep your stitching yourself?
I mainly stitch for myself. Izzy is for my oldest daughter and then I will start on something for the other two. I like to keep cross stitching for myself since my knitting is usually always for other people.
Cheers, Sharine

Wipocalypse #5

Hi All,

Here is how I fared this time around.

Piper Tir N Org last time

This time

Princess Izzy last time

This time

Rudolph ornament last time

This time

Still no Floral Beauty. I'm finding it a bit hard to get motivated on at the moment but I'm sure that will end soon.

May Wipocalypse Question:
What designs or themes do you really wish you could find?  What do you think is missing among stitching designs?

I would love some Western designs but there are so many great charts out there that that would just add to my list lol.

Cheers, Sharine

WIPocalypse #4

Hi All,

Here we go again:)

Piper Tir N Org last time

Piper Tir N Org now

Princess Izzy last time

 This time

Penguin ornament last time

And finished

So I started Rudolph

Sadly no Floral Beauty this month.

This months topic is how do you keep your stash organized?
Since most of my stash are HAED charts they are all stored on a usb stick and backed up on dropbox.
My other charts are in one underbed storage container. Since I have had a bit of culling of my magazines( I have been buying them for five years and think the Christmas ornaments are the first thing I have stitched out of them) they are all stored in a couple of magazine holders.
My threads live in 4 cotton storage boxes that I set up around me to stitch every night. I don't 'kit out' every project and just buy the threads as I need them so all my projects share the same threads.
Thanks to DH I am lucky enough to have the full set of the DMC range.
Cheers, Sharine

WIPocalpyse #2

Hi All,

Here is how I went for the month.

Piper Tir N Org- had a page finish!

This time

Princess Izzy/Cyclops- also with a page finish

This time

Angel ornament last time

With just a little backstitch to go

I haven't had a chance to work on Floral Beauty for a while.

This months topic-How many projects do you generally feel comfortable having in progress at a time?  Tell us about your one-at-a-time or rotation habits!

Clearly I don't stick to one at a time. My rotation is- Sunday to Friday Piper and Izzy swap week to week. Saturday the kids stay up late so I work on Angel as she doesn't require the attention the other two do. Floral Beauty comes out when my mother-in-law who lives with us isn't home which is why it moves so slowly.
Cheers, Sharine
