We've been having some great photos posted over in the Facebook group over the last few days, so I know some of you are making good progress, and perhaps even finished the January Carnations pattern for this month.
As for my progress... well....
... you can see there's not much going on. I started this as my first day for the Crazy January Challenge, and haven't had a chance to pick it back up again yet. So the 7 or so stitches I put in that day remain the only ones I have so far. This is the first time I've worked on 18 count aida in awhile, and I was surprised at how much I missed the smaller count. Hmm, something to think about for future projects.
BUT! I am still going to start February's design sometime early next month, as well as trying to bang out some more progress on this one in the meantime. How about you? What progress have you made this month? Are you continuing on, or focusing on finishing the current WIP before moving on to the next month?

Important Notes For Current SAL Participants:
To earn an extra prize entry for this month, you must submit a check in (even if it's showing progress and not a finish like mine is).
If you have done a blog post showing your progress, please use the linking widget below to add a direct link to your check in post.
If you have chosen to post your progress in the Facebook group, please leave a link here on this post as well. That just makes it easier for me to gather info and not miss/double count anyone.
If you're participating but using a different way to check in, please send me an email to brownieschair (AT) hotmail (DOT) com with your progress details/pictures and I will post them here for you.
If anyone has any questions, please let me know. I will leave the link widget open through the end of next week (Feb 7th) so please check in by that date.
Now, who's ready to start February? :)
Hi Alyssa
ReplyDeleteThe beginning is there :)
Hopefully you find the time next month to put some more stitches down :)
I think you are a busy lady :) so still well done on all of your new starts
I hope you'll catch up with your flowers; i just looked at the others and they are all so pretty! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm sure you will finish your carnation soon, probably beating me.
ReplyDeleteThe most important thing is to begin so you've made this step :) as well as I ;) But I am sure that you will finish it sooner than I will finish mine :)
ReplyDeleteWell, you are doing DUCJC and projects with deadlines so it's understandable when some get put on the back burner! You'll get it done in time. :D February might be a hard month for me but with March already done, I get a cheat month right?~ :b
