The only rule is to have fun, keep an eye for you threads and be always in stitches.
Pick 15 projects that are ALREADY STARTED and FINISH them.
ha, there you are, my challenge to you. Not new ones coz we all know there are far more than 15 to which we would like to start.

I have two finishes one is the Penguin Jive artwork by Ellen Krans adapted  to cross stitch by Trina Laube this is a pattern from the july 2008 Cross Stitch & Needlework magazine.
I did this on 28 count fabric not sure of the fabric type.
I did change him out a little I used Kreinik silver threab insread of the Kreinik thread called for, I did not put beads on the trees, this is a door hanger for my front door.
Next is the Halloween Fairy by Nora Corbett from the Cross Stitch & Needlework magazine september 2008, I stitched her on a smaller count this was a mistake the beads seem to small for the pattern I am just going with it, I am not sure of the fabric I did use a hand dyed fabric I bought from my favorite Needlework shop, I have finished 11 of my 15 I donot think I will get all 15 done before the end of the year, I will do a challenge again if given the chance I still have many projects that have been started and just waiting for
me to finish them, wish me luck.
