Updates and a Lack of Self Control

The past week has involved little stitching time. I did put off housework in order to stitch over the weekend, though.

My first update is on my Woodland Sampler by Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery. I finished stitching the July Block and started August. My goal is to finish August by the end of the week.

I have stitched a little more on May Word play by With thy needle and Thread. This project is great when I only have a short time to stitch and I want to see progress.

Now it is confession time. I know that I planned to only work on my WIPS because there are so many, however, I could not resist the 2014 Once upon A Time Sampler by the Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery. It includes a combination of specialty and DMC floss. A new fairy tale is to be stitched up each month. I have already received the pattern for January and the border pattern. I had to start.

Hope to post again soon! ~aj

    1. Would you believe that I got so wrapped up in frogging/rest itching part of the Once Upon A Time border that I forgot to post? Thanks for the reminder!

  3. I love this post! I have more WIPs than I can count, but the Once Upon a Time sampler is just too sweet to pass up! A dear friend is working on the woodland sampler, too, and I have a feeling I'll be adding that to my pile...Chrissie x
