But first I will show you what I have done since my last update.
The Hogwarts logo went from here:
To here:
I started The Red Fairy (again, I had done nearly three pages (full crosses on 18ct Aida), but didn't like it compaired to half crosses on 28ct) (I also noticed that the picture is upside down..):
I have acually one quite a bit more on the Red Fairy, but for some reason I didn't take a photo, and since it's rolled up and put away for now I don't want to pull it out. Also I decided to work a bit differently on the Red Fairy - I will do one color and finish the entire row and do that for each row. I started at the bottom simply because I've already stitched some at the top and wantet something "new".
I got some stitches in on Sugar as well, but to few for it to show. I'm really sick of the light blues and winter white on it, so I'll see when I will feel like working on it again... I just took out Bibliodame today to work on, so I will show the progress on that when I've stitched a bit on it.
I have put some time into organizing my threads as well. I have THIS YEAR bought around 70 skeins of DMC, so I had to put a lot of them on bobbins, and the rest of them (my extras) into my skein storage. I have also ordered more skeins (?!), but it will probably be at least two weeks until I get those. I ordered them when I ordered the pattern and fabric for Ink Circles 99, a pattern that I've been watching for some time, and that I will give to my father for Christmas.
My goals (in total for each project):
Bibliodame: 4 finished pages
The Red Fairy: 4 colors done on the bottom row
Middle Earth: 2 finished pages
Hogwarts logo: completely finished
99: completely finished
My owls: completely finished
Sugar: 2 pages finished (as far as possible if I don't buy the missing threads)
Maybe this will be easier for me. And hopefully if I reach my goal for one project I will feel satisfied with it and put it aside until next year!
