Planning to start
Well, I've gotten back to Queene Besse's Chesse Boarde which has been a goal for how long AND I've made serious progress on it so I'm pleased already. What else will I start? Not entirely sure- I suspect SB's Snow Patch, possibly Pooh's Windy Day Sampler, DMC's dandelion and (since I'm expecting a new grandchild) a birth sampler of some sort though I am thinking about maybe just adding date and name to this old finish instead: Rosebud Lullaby. I would really like to restart Egyptian Garden- not from scratch no, but I keep looking at it and now I've finally found the mistake and really it's nothing that would be noticed and simple to work around but it's pissed me off for so long that I really bear a grudge toward it and can't seem to get myself back to working on it. Ideally I would work a 3 week rotation this year- 1 week on QBCB (which would take 7 rotations to finish at 1 row per week), 1 on EG (3 rotations: 1 for the pyramids, 1 for the lotus', 1 for the very outside border and then I'm not sure how much for the beading- maybe 1 more rotation) and 1 on any darn thing I want (so I can keep the finishes coming as I find them seriously motivational). We'll see I guess.
Somehow got added to the mix when I wasn't looking:
Albemarle
Antique Motif
Ilkley
Snow Child
Back from the framer:
None yet!
