8th Finish for the year....

 

Stacy Nash Primitives - Hallowe'en Jack Sewing Roll.  Finish #8 for 2024.  I started this in November of 2019, then it went into the pile of started things and was ignored.  I skipped the birds at the top of the tree, and the date.  I adjusted a few letters to be more pleasing to my eye.  But it is mostly the pattern.  Colour and Cotton Jazlyn 28 count in Steel.  Dmc 310.  One over one.  Below is a photo of when I picked it back up again.  

I tried to finish the Lizze Kate Christmas ABC - but it was not my mood for more than a thread.  So at this point, if it is not my mood, I just grab something else I have already started.  Now I am back to the red one - doing my two pages for December.  Back in 2019, I was also working on Plum Street's - Friends of the Hart, with the deer....  I'm still not done with that sucker yet either, but it was a random grab in September of this year.  Progress - just make progress on anything.  It doesn't really matter.  The point is to enjoy the stitching.  But maybe for you - it is the finish that is important. 

Progress then ....

 Plum Street - Friends of the Hart.
Above is where I picked it back up.  Below is what I got done before it went back in the pile again.

Then I just  grabbed other stuff to start...

Heartstring Samplery - Simple Living Sampler.
Fancy flosses.  But the colors are not my taste.  I like the sampler, I'm trying it in the suggested flosses, you never know.  Antique White jobelan 28 count.

Stacy Nash Primitives - Hallowe'en Jack Sewing Roll.
Colour and Cotton Jazlyn 28 count in Steel.  Dmc 310.

With Thy Needle and Thread - Fruit For a Song CS49.
Uses all dmc and nothing fancy.  Photo sucks.  On Colour and Cotton - Alabaster 32 ct jobelan.
Trying it 1 over 2 - which I rarely try.  But with the large grass area, and using dmc, I can try a hunk at a time.
** And I did see I also started another Lizzie Kate - Wouldn't It Be Nice....  forgot that one...
Today I switched and grabbed something from the stuff I have started.  I have started way too many new things lately.  I need a finish.  I was really happy with the top one and the progress, and then just went off the rails.
