"How do you begin planning for the next year with your stitching? Tell us your process."
Process? You HAVE to be kidding!
~~~~~WIPS~~~~~
1. Elizabeth Almond's "Save the Stitches", begun in 2014, on white lugana in mostly DMC 310 (with some scattering of two DMC blues and two DMC greens where metallic threads had been called for.). Only stitched a little on three blocks this time round and didn't finish any of them. SO basically, no progress. so no pboto!
2. "Faith, Hope, Love", a mystery SAL for 2024 by Fox & Rabbit. On antique white 28 ct Lugana using a Threadworx variegated (Autumn Leaves 1039) and three DMC colors (436, 975, and 310) that closely match some colors on that Threadworx floss... I'm on schedule here - the next/last installment is due out December 1, 2024.
~~~~~Completions~~~~~
1. Stitchonomy "Halloween 2024" SAL. Stitched on Chocolate Raspberry AIDA using the provided kit DMC threads. I actually finished (decided to not use the charms from the kit) on October 30, 2024, but couldn't share the competed piece until all installments had been provided to non-pattern club members:
2. "Royal Gardens", a mystery SAL by Fox & Rabbit, begun in 2023. On a pale green/sapphire 32ct Lugana and Threadworx variegated thread (1048 "Woodland Green"). Completed November 17, 2024!

On the non-SAL (and inactive SAL) front:
- The Glendon Place "Hope & Strength" piece still requires extensive beading.
- The Lakeside SAL "Kogin" still languishes untouched.
- Traveling needlepoint is awaiting a road trip to justify taking it out again.
and that is my November report! Happy stitching, everyone!
