New year, new thread.
I've been working on my blackwork SAL project. Fill patterns are done (except for the contrast colour and beading) and I still have to do the border. It's coming along though. I have discovered that there are some fill patterns I really enjoy, and others that just suck!

Looks lovely! Yes, isn't it strange some fill patterns are so much more satisfying than others?

It is the year of babies for my friends it seems. And all of them first babies too. So I am stitching baby announcements for 3 soon-to-be mothers. The first is due April 1st, so I've gotten a start on hers.
It's Lickle Bit Cleaner by DMC. I'm stitching it on 32 ct antique white lugana 2 over 2. (I have decided I detest stitching over 2, but it's impossible to avoid with all the darn fractional stitches in this design.)
It'll look like this when I'm done (I hope):
And my progress so far:
