WIP Wednesday

Happy hump day! Yesterday sucked crazy hard for me but today has been much much better. In the last weekish I've gotten quite a bit done.

I have 6/10 blocks done on my HAED challenge. I still have a month to finish, I may try to do one or two this weekend. 

I spent 4 days working on Aurora Cabin after that. I'm still working away on all the half stitches in the sky, I kinda can't wait until I get to a point with full crosses haha. 

And finally, my will power failed monumentally and I totally started Stargazer. She's been my dream for so long. I started at the bottom and have no real goal or end point in mind before rotating out, I'll just play it by ear. This is 3 days work on it. 

I got my last issue of World of Cross Stitching today. I'm kinda bummed. I wish so many of the good mags ween't UK based. Or alternately I wish I was UK based.

February already?!

Happy Groundhog day, hopefully the rodents won't be liars and we will get an early spring!

Got some mail, the final two pieces of my large Colour Cascade order! Now I can begin Stargazer but I'm trying to wait until I get down a wip or two. Here's my floss toss for it on Underground King opal belfast. 


I spent most of last week only working on my Lighthouse from Artecy, I finally got page 5 finished after starting it months ago and getting confettied out. 


One more page and I will have the top third finished. 

Hubby will be going away on exercise Thursday so while he's away I may take advantage of my quiet solo evenings and start flosstubing. I've been watching more and more videos and am really enjoying it, and I feel like it can be easier to verbally express myself especially since I always blog from my phone. So we'll see and maybe give it a go!

And since hubby will be gone that always means I get way more stitching done since theres no one nagging me to clean up haha. So I'm looking forward to getting lots of stitching done and maybe sneak in a few starts while he's away, every time I tell him I need to go to Michael's he asks why I don't finish some of my many starts before starting something new. *insert eyeroll here* He obviously doesn't get it.
