WIPocalypse 2

It's that time again folks.  WIPocalypse update 2.  I am qFireuite pleased with my progress this past month.   I stitched on a few projects and finished  2.


Fire Goddess- Joan Elliott- 28 ct hand dyed evenweave
 Lizzy Kate- Hop Squared- Hand dyed Aida received in an exchange- finished
 Shades of Autumn-from nancy's needle- 18 ct canvas- Finished
 Japanese Garden- Chatelaine- 28 ct cashel linen midnight blue



Now for my regularly scheduled update- I ended up stitching on Shades of Autumn last week and it is finished.  I am so very pleased with how it turned out.   It only took 3 years to finish, but that isn't the point is it?  Hubby loves this one and wants to hang it in the hall, who am I to argue with that. 

Today I got out Japanese Garden. My goal is to get the border finished, whether that is possible I have no idea, but i'll give it a good try.

  8. Ohh I love the Japanese Garden. I'm sure Shades of Autumn will look lovely on the wall. When I get some things framed I'm sure I'll have arguments with hubs on where they should go!
