New year, new start

I really want to try hard to update every Friday on my weeks progress. Although I am participating inWIPocalypse  this year, I will save that stuff for the 5th.

This week began with a finish. Finally finished crabby all year-April. It took way too long to complete. I discovered I was missing a few threads way back in spring. I not only finished the stitching, I went ahead and added the beads.

I am participating in new year, new start sal on a cross stitch Facebook group. I was so thrilled to get this started finally. I have had this pattern waiting about a year now. 

This is Earthdancer by Butternut Road. I am stitching on 32 ct. Wexford linen. It's Silkweaver's fairyland. This is two days progress. I am loving it so far.
