The Girl that Stitches

Farewell to 2016 After what seems like days of getting stuck in confetti stitching it's finally come to an end!  I managed to finish my 2016 Yearly Goals in time! There were two pages left to complete; one on Iris and one on The Queen of Spades. Previous progress: Current progress: Previous progress: Current progress: This year I managed to complete a total of 10 pages on my HAED's!  Thanks to everyone for all the encouragement and comments throughout 2016.  It's been fun sharing my stitching with you all.  Wishing everyone a Happy New Year and may 2017 be your best one yet! Happy Stitching xxx

This year I am participating in the HAED BB SAL (Heaven and Earth bulletin board stitch a long). At the start of the year I set the following goals for 2015: Treasure Hunt: pages 3, 4, 5, 6 ( have currently completed pages 3 & 4) Nocturne: pages 4, 5, 6, 8 (have currently completed pages 4 & 5) Iris: page 2 and 3 (have currently completed page 2 and about half page 3) Even though I’m about halfway there I still feel there is lots of stitching remaining! Especially on Treasure… One page of treasure seems to take forever! I really want to meet these goals and have been trying to work out a rotation that meets them and also introduces the new pieces I’ve started… but from my calculations I’m being a bit ambitious.  So the plan is to focus on the goals I originally set and to also get the mystery chart completed by the end of the year so it can be gifted.  That’s going to be a challenge in itself as that mystery chart is the most detailed pattern I’ve ever attempted.
