Jan WIPocalypse Update

Here I am with my January WIPocalype update.  I am busy, busy, busy with work (again) ... so sadly that means I have much less time for stitching.  I did manage to add another cow to my little "Cow Sampler, so it is moo-ving along.

"Afternoon Nap"
I also picked up my sadly neglected "Afternoon Nap".  The photo above shows my goal.  The photo below shows my current progress:
I had a bit of frogging to do, but I toughed it out and actually made some progress.  The image below shows where I left off last year:
This project, while small, seems to be one of those slow moving projects.  Lots of color changes worked on 18 ct Aida fabric. 

"Too Much Honey" Sampler
Now onto a much quicker moving project.  My "Too Much Honey" Sampler.  I completed stitching the bottom corners and the row of colorful motifs, and began working on the block of text. I am confident that this will be a finish before too long.

"American Sampler" by Sandra Sullivan
This weekend I planned to pick up "American Sampler" by Sandra Sullivan and make some great progress!  ha-ha!  I ended up working all weekend with little time to stitch.  I did manage a bit of progress however.  Here is where I am currently:

 
Better luck next weekend.
Happy Stitching!

  4. Progress on 4 pieces is great. I'm enjoying seeing them all grow, but this crazy cat lady loves Afternoon nap.

  5. Too much Honey is my focus piece for next month. I agree, it stitches pretty quick.
