Worked on Several Things...

 Renato Parolin - Rossi balocchi.  Finish #3 for 2023.  

Worked on Love Never Fails - Barbara Ana Designs.  

This is where it was when I picked it back up again.  Lots got added, but it got tossed back in the pile till next time.

Picked up On Prudence - Plum Street Samplers.  

This is where it was when I picked it back up again.  I am working the right side border, and it looks like it will line up, I'm just not quite there yet. 

This, then That, then the Other Thing...

 

Salem Sisters 2 from Plum Street Samplers got started...  on white, which was a crappy fabric choice basically.  But I was enjoying stitching it, till I realized it looked like a stitchers first project...

Then I tried picking up from the already started stuff.... decided to try filling in pages, but I could not even finish filling in that peacock on the lower left....

Courtney Collection - Knightmare ( mirrored ).  Decided to start the mirror image of this one.  But I didn't last at this one very long either.

 This was Barbara Ana - Love Never Fails... which I decided to restart.  This version was on a sort of suggested color fabric, but her dress disappearing bothered me.  So I ordered two possible different fabrics, and it got restarted.

And this is the restart version so far.  My camera is not doing this color justice at all.  It is called Peach Rose lugana 28 count.  I would say it's a cantaloupe color.  So far, it looks really good on this.  And it's way outside my comfort zone of usual colors.  It would fit on a fat 1/8, which let me by a couple different odd colors to try.  So I started the projects by trying to put something on just white, and feeling disappointed I had picked that, and ended happy with trying a Peach Rose fabric.  Actually, I think I'm gonna like this fabric more than the suggested brown tone.  

Other than starting new things, which everything I started is part of a set, and a restart... and trying to work on something started... it was good.  But honestly, now I'd like to do a restart on that Salem Sisters design.  It's a quick stitch.  Doing it again after finishing this one, no problem. 

A page finish, then another that will need a restart...

 Ink Circles - Forests of Sumatra.  Finished another page, so 5 of 9 pages completed now.  It will finish at just slightly smaller than a piece of paper when completed.  It's on a 32 count Colour and Cotton, it's cranberry on gray, using silk.  Below is what it looked like when I picked it back up this round.  

I tried to pick up something else...

This is Love Never Fails.  I tried working on her dress, and that light color just sucks on this fabric.  Enough that I would rather just stop, and then restart this completely over again.

This is where it was when I picked it back up again.  I like the pattern, just not on this fabric.  So then I picked up the Ink Circles pattern instead.  It will get restart, but not right away.  I have so many things already started, and yet there will come a day when I just want to start SOMETHING... The other colors work, and I know that dress would KINDA work... but stitching something iffy is awful when you just cringe when you stitch it.

A Finish - Progress - New Starts

An old kit, but new to me.  Little House Needleworks - Giving Thanks ( w/ threads ).
Stitched on a scrap of 28 count evenweave jobelan.
A start and a finish.  Finish #13 for 2019.

 Above is where I was when I picked back up - Love Never Fails.
Worked on it just a bit, finished the heart, a bit on the man, a bit on the back ground of the diamonds under his feet.  Below is after and where is stands now.

 I picked up some older charts including an older Prairie Schooler.
The patterns all wanted the same fabric, and so I decided to start four patterns, all Prairie Schoolers from two charts.  So if I get bored, I just turn the fabric and flip the page to the other pattern.  It is just something weird or fun to try.  They are each postcard or half sheet of paper size when finished.  This is just a few days on it so far, and a little bit started on each pattern.  Two are right side up, two are sideways cause that is the way they fit to use the fabric with less waste.  So far, kinda fun.
