Two Challenge Weekend update

Last weekend was WIPGO weekend. This weekend is the 24 Hours of Cross Stitch Marathon. WIPGO weekend is the second weekend of each month; 24 Hours of Cross Stitch Marathon occurs 4 times each year. 

While I was able to stitch on my focus WIPs  both weekends, I didn’t come close to the 24 hours of the marathon this month.  I completed the stitching on 3 French Hens on WIPGO weekend. This weekend I  was able to complete Dancer and 9 Ladies Dancing. I will add the beads to the ornaments when i complete a few more.

Dancer is my first finish for my Year of WIPS challenge. It was also on my WIPGO board, as was both of the ornaments.

January/February 2024

It’s hard to put all that I worked on in January and February in one post, so I’ll just be sprinkling them in as I go along. In the mean time here are the first 4. 

The houses on the left still need their roofs, but I’ve started the antler on right side.

The top border of Christmas Garden is giving fits. I think I have taken it out at lease 3 times now. Still working on the top portion of the design and will get back to the border later.

Almost met my goal if finishing this block in February, so close.

I didn’t take a before picture, but this is my progress so far. The gold on the A is the wing for my my still headless angel. The shepherd and sheep are done and on to the next set of letters.
