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.

First Finish Of 2013

It was a good weekend to stay inside and stitch, which is just what I did...and put a finish to my "Downton Abbey ABC Sampler"

I still giggle every time I look at poor Mr. Pamuk...what a cad!

Speaking of Downton, did you watch last night's episode? Poor Edith, my heart just broke for her!

So, there ya have it, my first finish for the year.

A hearty "Thanks" goes out to our dear Jayne for leading us all in another year of endeavors...here's to ya!

Here's to a Great Stitchy Year!

Since I was away from this blog for most of 2012, I've decided to start the new year off right with a renewed interest in working on my WIPs/UFOs and posting on this blog.  Unlike in other years, I've made this list more realistic and included several projects that are close to completion in order to increase the likelihood of finishes.  Here's the 15 projects I've selected to finish (or at least attempt to finish) in 2013:

Letter G Fairy -- Nora Corbett  (10% complete)
December Word Play -- With Thy Needle and Thread  (5% complete)
Primitive Wizard of Oz -- Midsummer Night Designs  (45% complete)
Christmas Sled Stocking -- Dimensions  (2% complete)
Polar Bear Snow Globe -- Bent Creek  (60% complete)
Tis the Season -- Blackbird Designs  (25% complete)
It's Cold Outside -- Blue Ribbon Designs  (45% complete)
Soft Spring -- Shepherd's Bush  (80% complete)
Noah's Ark Mantle -- Bent Creek  (40% complete)
Red Thread Series -- Bent Creek  (85% complete)
Purple Snowman -- Shepherd's Bush  (60% complete)
Sleigh Ride at Dusk Stocking -- Dimensions  (2% complete)
Winter Wonderland -- Blackbird Designs  (15% complete)
Christmasland -- Raise the Roof Designs  (85% complete)
Halloweenies -- Plum Street Samplers  (20% complete)

I'm looking forward to finishing up some of these projects in 2013 and reducing my stash.

Happy New Year everyone ... here's to a great stitchy year!
