June Update. Knitting finish , 2 prpject bags and cross stitch start

 In June I worked on 8 cross stitch projects, including one new start.  I also had a knitting finish and made 2 crossstitch project bags.

I total I put in 16071 stitches.  

Alices Rabbit got 801 stitches 
 

Cat nap got 1216 stitches 
Caricature got 2017 stitches 



Gertrude got 1489 stitches 
 Pandemic got 820 stitches



Four of bees got 1381 stitches 

Mini at the steps is my focus piece and got 4016 stitches


My new start is Lady Ophelia Verre which was a Limited Edition that was only available from HAED for a very short time,   artwork by DGB creations.

This is my progress. 4231 stitches 
I also bought some new charts.  HAED had a short re release of some of their limited edition pieces.  I bought 3 minis

Chiquita


The awakening 

Mythical mermaid 
Right now HAED are having a 50% off sale and I bought this huge piece. The Trident and the Tempest


I also made 2 project bags

 I had a knitting finish. This is the Ranunculus sweater and is the fourth Ranunculus I've made

Plans going forward have changed.  As ive added 1 large piece and want to start Trident as well that will be 2 very big pieces that I want to see some progress on.
 So each month I will do ;

Ophelia.  Half a page
trident.     Half a page
After they are done, the others are on a wheel and when spun I will do half a page.
However I want a focus for a finish piece,  so that will be entered twice on the wheel.  As cat nap is twice the size of the others that will also have 2 entries on the wheel.  My focus for a finish piece is Mini At the steps.  I have another 16640 stitches until finished.  Those that aren't hands will get around 3500 to 4000 stitches. 
Once all the wheel spins are complete I can start another project, but keep to mini size.
