DUCJC : Days 15 - 21

Howdy folks!  I have been keeping up with my DUCJC stitching ... I am just a bit slow to post.  Here we go:

Jan 15) Boo! by The Prairie Schooler (freebie)
Another Halloween ornament in progress.  Such a cute pattern.  I should have a nice little Halloween display when October rolls around this year.

Jan 16) Orchid Intrigue by Beth Ann Seal - JCS Feb 2015 Issue
From the latest issue of Just Cross Stitch.  Not sure how I will finish it ... maybe a biscornu? maybe an ornament?  (I don't have any Valentine ornaments, yet.)

Jan 17) American Sampler by Sandy Orton
A big project that has been waiting in the wings. This one has lots of specialty stitches - fun, fun, fun!

I am such a Sandy Orton fan.  This one is included in The Best of Kooler Design Studio.

A nice simple stitch with lots of bold color areas.

Jan 20) Stitcher Sampler (freebie)
I am stitching this pattern on a very chunky looking piece of 11 ct Aida with 3 strands of black floss.  I don't often stitch on 11 ct, but this oatmeal colored piece of Aida has some lovely texture to it.  I have the idea to incorporate it into a cover for a fabric journal book of stitches I am planning.  hmmm.

Jan 21) Mini Butterfly
One of those cute little kits form the dollar bin at Michaels.  I enjoy these quick little kits, as they are finished when you are finished stitching - since you stitch them right in the frame.

Whew! That gets me all caught up!  10 more days of new projects.  During February I will work on a different WIP each day.  Most of my WIPs are larger projects, and have been sadly neglected ... so I am itchin' to get stitchin'.
