16) Winter Sampler (Janlynn)
17) Cutthru' Cottage (Bothy Threads)
18) Red Velvet Cake (Glendon Place)
19) Fans of the Far East (Joan Elliott)
20) Peacock Tapestry (Teresa Wentzler)
21) Angel of Cross Stitch (Joan Elliott)
22) Snowwhite (Pinkythepink)
23) Things Unseen (Lizzie Kate)
24) Fob of the Month - March (Magical 525)
25) The Mermaid - Teresa Wentzler
And here's the cleanup waiting to be done on Sunday evening (don't worry, it's all safe and more tidy than it was before now):
I didn't work on my three tableclothes as I couldn't find the patterns/cover pictures, but adding these, there are 28 stitching WIPs right now, and then a quick count of everything else (knitting, crochet, beading...) gets me up to 41 - and I'm sure I forgot a few that are hiding off somewhere! I know that number is just peanuts for some people, but for me, right now, it seems like entirely too much. So now that I have everything together and organized, I'll have to make and effort to reduce it. We'll see how that goes, but at least I will be trying! At least, doing the Longest Day SAL showed me that I still love and enjoy all of my WIPs, so it shouldn't be too hard finishing a few of them, right?

Congrats on working on all of your WPIP's Leonore. I loved seeing your stitching pile. Made me smile. I wish I only had 41 projects started.

Wonderful to see all the projects you worked on. I'm glad to see the blackwork in the mix. Finishing my many WIP is so difficult when I keep starting new ones!
wow, that was a lot of stitching! Well done! I don't think that's so many WIPs, I'm pretty sure I have more, but I haven't been crafting much for the last 18 months, I'm starting to itch to get back to it, maybe find all those WIPs!
Thank you so much for joining in this year! Having a whole weekend is an excellent idea and I shall suggest people do it next year.
In 2020, the Longest Day falls on IHSW so that will be even more perfect. Nothing like looking ahead two years LOL
I know 28 WIPs isn't anything for some but that would drive me nuts! Your Longest Day (weekend?) SAL went well! There would totally be a cat in that empty stitchy box in this house hah.
Fantastic progress on your projects! Looks like a longest weekend spent well x
Oh wie schön, gleich ein ganzes Wochenende um die alten Sachen mal wieder rauszuholen. Das ist doch gleich viel effektiver als nur ein Tag. Ich glaube, das werde ich mir für das nächste Jahr merken. Und mir geht es auch immer so, dass ich eigentliche alle meine Projekte liebe, egal, wie alt sie sind.
