Day 16

Yes, you have seen this before.  It is Solar Flare by Ro Pace.  I am so close to being done that it seems a shame to leave it in the basement.

Day 15

This is another Crazy January Challenge from 2012 called Butterfly by Alessandria Adelaide.  I have everything ready to go on it.  Hopefully it will get done next year.
My debate is whether to start new projects for the rest of the Crazy January Challenge 2013 or put more WIP's on my list.  There are 31 days in January...I will  decide tomorrow.

Day 14

Coq Au Pins by Twisted Oak.  There are two starts here: one is mine-very little stitched and the other is my ds's.  He thinks he made a mistake and it went to the basement to live.  I may see if I can fix his error and try to finish his.  Hey!  If it moves out of the basement, it is a good thing!

Day 13

This is the Agecroft Sweet Bag by Catherine Jordan.  She did the pattern for EGA and it is very close to being done.  But now I remember why it moved to the basement.  The gold chain stitch is difficult to do and I used Sulky to transfer the design.  Gold chain I can live with but how to remove the Sulky?  (It is a washable stabilizer.)  I am afraid if I dunk the piece in water the reds will bleed like mad.  I will finish the stitching and then see what I can do.  I have enjoyed stitching it and I am so close to being done!

Day 12

Heirloom Stitching Sampler by Thea Dueck has been in my basement all last year.  I love the colors on the piece and several members of my guild have finished it.  Hopefully I will get back to work on it this year.

Day 11

Look!  I made progress on something!  It is Merrily, Merrily by Barbara Jackson.  It will be a little Christmas ornament and I am enjoying stitching it.

Day 10 or What is this Mess?

Remeber that Color Wheel Quuilt from  Day 7?  Well, this is the rest of the class.  Or at least what I have dyed and rinsed so far.  My laundry room has 48 more squares waiting to be rinsed.  These squares are to be made into a wall hanging or quilt or something.  But currently they live in my basement.  The goal is to do something with them and let them see the light of day.
