carladee's 2014 thread *AAN Halloween Town Update 13/04*

Post by carladee »

Hi all :)

Shiny new thread, hopefully lots of stitching will get done this year. First of all I wanted to show you something I stitched for my parents for Christmas so not actually 2014 but a finish you haven't seen yet.

Welcome to the Nuthouse - Waxing Moon Designs
Image

and since Christmas I've been working on the Woodland Sampler by Frosted Pumpkin again, I've now completed August and September and hope to get this finished pretty soon :)

I had a good sort through all my other WIPs yesterday and even binned one or two which I don't like anymore or were really bothering me for other reasons, hopefully I can move on now without worrying about them!

I've also signed up for 2 new SALs, Frosted Pumpkin's Once Upon a Time and Alessandra Adelaide's Halloween SAL on Facebook so I'll have a couple of nice new starts coming up. I'm also determined to crochet more this year so I've joined the Moogly (blog) Afghan CAL. Let's see how long I can keep stitching this year :)
