Well what do you do, when you have just spent 15 hectic days, doing 15, well 16, new starts. Well if you have gone just a little bit cuckoo like some of us :D You start another small sampler.
I know, I know I think I will have to get myself a 'gift certificate' to the funny farm.
First a review of the first 15 days of 2011... Gathered up all my starts and went outside and photographed in natural light, cheated and used a tripod.

The sampler I started today, is a freebie from a French blog, I will have to look up where it came from, and let you know. I have also made some changes to personalize it.
Well starting tomorrow, I will be going back to my LHN Family Sampler, which has been neglected for the last 16 days. It is supposed to be finished by the end of March. Just one more WIP for 2011.
Before I go, one of the many upsides of doing the Crazy January Challenge, is that I have blogged everyday, it has been a bonus.
Goodnight LiBBiE in Oz
Oh Libbie, great minds think alike, as I woke up this morning thinking about something I wish I had started!! I'm going to be lazy and wait, though! Your last piece looks interesting though, would love to see the link when you have time to post!! Another good thing about the challenge too is that I've gotten to know some other stiffness better by reading their blogs almost every day!! *Hugs*
ReplyDeleteShould say stitchers above, dumb auto correct!!! LOL!!
ReplyDeletelovely blog. I am starting a cross stitch just now. hugs from Italy
ReplyDeleteIt has been nice hasn't it...meeting new friends, starting new projects without feeling guilty at not finishing them before starting another. I have never had unfinished works...this has set me free or started a bad habit...lol Have a nice weekend

How funny! I went through all my starts today too. I had a horrible time deciding which one to work on!! I must say that your starts have all been my favorites... all LHN and CCN. I only have four of them in my starts, but they are the ones I look forward to finishing the most!
ReplyDeleteHave to love your CJC starts. I would like to stitch them all, but maybe and just maybe I should finish my 15...
