April update

April was quite a good stitching month.  I celebrated my birthday, and just have to share this gorgeous mousse cake I got from a friend.  Chocolate/blueberry mousse with a chocolate and macaron.  Tasted as good as it looked.

Also finished page 4 of SK SeasonsWinter.  The wolf is now visible.  Next rotation I will work on her until she is finished -  very exciting.

Spirit of Winter update

Have completed page 3 of Spirit of Winter.  I'm well ahead of my rotation, the plan was to be at this stage at end of May and I finished page 3 early March.  So to treat myself I've started Mini Moonlight.
Here is pages 1-3 of Spirit of Winter

And here is what Moonlight will look like

I've completed half of the first page of Moonlight:

SK Seasons Winter page 2 completed and rotation plan for 2012

Feeling a bit better following surgery and managed to get a few stitches in over the last few days.  I've finished page 2 of Nadia Strelkina's SK Seasons Winter.

At the start of the year I set a rotation plan and targets for SK Seasons Winter and Spirit of Winter. The plan is:
January/February complete page 2 Spirit of Winter - met
March, complete page 2 SK Seasons - ahead of target
April/May complete page 3 SoW completed in March - well ahead of target! Started new project as reward - Mini Moonlight
June - half page 3 of SK Seasons Complete in July
July/Aug - complete page 4 SoW Completed in May
Sept, complete page 3 SK Seasons Completed in July
Oct complete page 5 SoW Completed on 25 August
Nov finish SK seasons  Completed on 1 August
Dec complete half page 6 SoW Completed October

I had surgery on 24 January so didn't get around to posting an update for January.  Here is HAED Spirit of Winter by Josephine Wall.  Finished 2 pages.  Starting to see the holly in her hair.

This is the latest for SK Seasons Winter.  I've finished the top half of page 2 now, so one and a half pages completed.

Finished: Love Letter

Here she is framed.  After 600 hours of stitching over 2 1/2 years.

October Update

Nearly there, just 3 more pages to go.  Hopefully she'll be finished before Christmas.  I did a lot of stitching in October, but now summer is coming I won't be getting as much stitching time in - the garden and running will take away some of my stitching time.
