You’re probably wondering about all the “any WIP” listed. Well, I currently have a (slightly out of date) list that has 45 WIPs on it. Shameful. Some of those WIPs are covered by my monthly TW projects, and I decided to pick a few others to concentrate on next year so that I would have some variety.
- 12 Days of Christmas by Joan Elliott (which is listed specifically several times)
- Egypt Garden by Chatelaine (which I don’t expect to make much progress on, but which I love)
- Love, Peace and a Cure by Lizzie*Kate (which I think is close to finished)
- Santa of the Forest by Lavender and Lace (an old piece that I would love to see finished)
- small canvaswork projects from A Needle Pulling Thread (these are by Carolyn Mitchell, but I forget the name of the design…)
What about new projects, you’re probably wondering now. Well, I have another list. On it are over 70 projects that are either kits or that I have kitted up and are ready to go. I haven’t decided on the fabric for a couple, and I need to pull the DMC for a few others, but they are all essentially ready to stitch. From that ridiculous list I’ve picked the following pieces to start next year, when the urge takes me or as a reward:
- Down the Garden Path by Lynn Nicoletti
- Voyage at Sea by Dimensions
- Yo Ho Ho by Sue Hillis
- 12 Days of Christmas by Victoria Sampler
- Friendly Full Moon Witch by Chatelaine
- Elizabeth by Mirabilia
- various small ornament kits from Mill Hill
