The question for this full moon was: "What designs or themes do you really wish you could find? What do you think is missing among stitching designs?"
Well, I have to say I'm a rather eclectic stitcher and can usually find something to stitch without looking too long or hard (heck, my stash of charts, magazines and books is large enough to net a fair number of $$$ in a garage sale should I ever get around to setting one up). I can't offhand think of anything I can't find... I'm more of the "there's way too much 'cute' out there for my taste" kind of stitcher. So I guess if this question was phrased in another way, I'd suggest trimming down the the selection of smalls, the too cutes, the child-suitable offerings in favor of some designs that had some challenge, some speciality stitches, some beading...
Since the last WIPocalpyse, I have completed the following:
- Take a Stitch Tuesday: Rice Stitch (varieties), Square Box Stitch, Rope stitch , ZigZag Coral Stitch, Feathered Chain Stitch and Beaded Feathered Chain Stitch.
- May Bead Journal Project atc ornament - Goldfinch Owl"
- May Crazy Quilt Journal block
Completions that are milestones in some continuing WIPS:
- Wiehenburg Mystery Band Sampler bands 10 and 11
- "Save the Stitches" SAL blocks 6 and 7
In progress are:
- the Roll Your Own Mandala "Reloaded"
- "Save the Stitches" outlines for blocks 8 and 9
- The Funk & Weber Finishing class on hemstitching
In addition to the above in-progress WIPS, expected this month are more Take-a-Sitch Tuesday stitches and the last band on the Weihneburg Mystery Band Sampler. So I continue to move from small compltion to small completion while the BAPs barely get touched! Will I never get caught up?
