Last night I met my December goal for Sea Witch with 1106 tent/553 full x stitches and 35.6% complete.

This year, I've completed 13504 tent/6752 full x stitches.  Sadly, I won't be focusing on finishing this in 2025 or in 2026 but I will continue to pick it up every month.

 Last night, I met my March goal on Sea Witch with 1160 tent stitches and 32.11% complete.  

Looking at my WIP makes me want to push my progress a little faster but at the same time I really don't want to burn out which I'm struggling with a little.  For now, I'm going to keep hitting my goals since they aren't huge and rotating to keep my interest.

I met with a couple of local stitchers Saturday and one from the PA.  Instead of bringing Sea Witch, I brought Elizabeth Hall.  I didn't have a lot of progress for about 3 hours of stitching but I think we all had a good time.

Warrior Alice is out now.  I'm curious if my 1000 tent stitches will get me close to another page finish.

2/19/24

 February Goal met on Sea Witch with 1158 tent stitches = 579 full cross - 31.71% complete

Out next is The Loneliness of Autumn 

5/3/23

 Ann Roberts from Hands Across the Sea came out after I met my goal on Mermaid of the Deep.  I was making really nice progress until I realized what appears to be white on the cover of the chart is actually a light blue.  Since it's used as the breast of a bird, a church and other places, I decided I need to stir my stash and come up with a replacement for that particular color which I didn't really want to do at that time.  So she got put away.  Here's my progress.

I'm hoping the next time she comes out, I'll be able to finish page 1 and meet my goal on her this year.

Sea Witch came out next to finish page 12 which is mostly black.  I've met that goal and it's now at 30.91% complete.

Master is back out for another 9000 or so tent stitches and it celebrates it's 10th birthday on 5/5.

3/31/23

 Page 11 of Sea Witch from HAED,  now 28.86% complete

3/27/23

 Sunday, I met my March goal on Mermaid of the Deep SK

After chatting with a friend, Sea Witch has come back out for a break from the light colors of The Master.   Over the last couple of days, I've added more than 2000 tent stitches.

 Page 10 of Sea Witch.

I'm going to work on the black in the next two pages to add to my stitch count for a challenge.

11/7/22

 Page 9 of Sea Witch

Hopefully I can keep up the same pace with page 10

10/30/22

 So the new start won out with Trick or Treat from Paine Free Crafts

I finished page 1 on 10/30/22.

Then Sea Witch came out and I finally started to feel her.  Hopefully that lasts as my goal on her is two pages.

I think Loara Standish is going on my other qsnaps so I can rotate between them and hopefully meet both goals.

8/15/22

 M. Woods 1759 from Milady's Needle came out last week.  I'd struggled with the lightest color in this conversion because it just didn't show up on my fabric.  So I ordered the called for AVAS 100.3.  When I tried it, oy worked so I kept stitching and ended up meeting my goal for this year plus some.

Friday was the start of a challenge with Full Coverage Fanatics on Facebook so Sea Witch came out.  Sadly, I only added 21 stitches.  

 I moved onto Sarah Breazier from HATS.  I felt this one.  Page 4.

10/7/21

 Tuesday, I finished page 8 of Sea Witch

I also pulled out Loara Standish.  I couldn't settle into working in her which tells me it's time to put her away for now.  Progress was made which is good.
