October WIPocalypse

Just a week late! I'm getting better at this already :D

Can you believe it's November already? Barely two months left to the year, and I guess time to admit I won't make quite a few of my goals...which I'm okay with, I did make plenty of progress on plenty of things, I might just have to go differently about being organized. Which ties in nicely with the question for this month: Do you prefer to stitch on a rotation or one project at a time?
I will certainly never be a true "one at a time" stitcher, but lately, my "rotation" has degenerated into stitching on 3-5 projects on any given day, and I didn't really feel comfortable with that, either. I'll try to be a little stricter about what I work on again, probably limiting myself to the one strang on The Puppeteer plus another project that I'll stick with until reaching a specified goal. We'll see how long that will last.

I didn't work on too many of my '18 in '18' projects last month:


1) Fire and Ember SAL




Another page finished, and doesn't it look stunning? Just one more to go, this is really exciting!


2) The Puppeteer




This was my '10 extra hours' project of the moonth, which allowed me to get all caught up and have a few 'page finishes' too (two of them had barely any black at all, so they were super fast to stitch for now). I'm getting near to another row finish which will actually get me past the halfway point!

5) The Mermaid



I haven't actually worked on this since Gifted Gorgeousness, so here she is again.

Great progress on these three. Fire and ember is gorgeous.

Oh ja, das kenne ich auch. Es ist unglaublich, wie schnell das alles außer Rand und Band geraten kann. Aber solange man sich damit wohl fühlt, ist es OK. Ih selbst wollte, es wäre so, denn ich habe seit Monaten keine Nadel mehr angerührt. Na ja, irgendwann wird die Sticklust wieder kommen.
Toll, wie weit du bei deinen WIPs gekommen bist. Ich bin schon so gespannt auf Fire and Amber.

Fire and Ember is gorgeous, and seriously - only one page left? Nearly time for a massive Happy Dance!

I am veering to Focus on a Finish for the end of the year, I want these projects off my list LOL

Great progress on these projects, Leonore.

Great progress this month - as I get told a lot, any progress is progress. Fire and Ember is so close; I love the feeling when there is only a small amount of a pattern left! x
