It's time for the results of my January Jaunts & February Frolics. I'm a little behind on my goals to stitch between 100,000 to 200,000 stitches this year. But I'm hoping to giddy up and get alot done this month.
So for January I had a new start for the new year.
It's Heaven on Earth by Mystic Stitch and it's worked on 18ct white Aida 2 over 1.

| 1837 stitches |
I also managed to complete 1000 stitches on my Gecko Rouge - Snow White in January.

And 2176 stitches more for February! How cool are my glittery needle-minders. The lipstick was my most recent acquisition, perfect for a Snow White wip. I'm really excited to finally reach one of the sexy dwarves. See that smoosh of fuzzy brown near her elbow, yep that is the top of his head. Rrrrrrrrr

The other wip I worked on was QS Theatre of the Absurd. This is from the 2013 Heaven and Earth designs BB Freebie SAL. And it isn't even my oldest wip!! I'm determined to finish this in March. And then I can re-start the 2011 Freebie SAL LOL.

My January stitch totals are 4588 as I am including my diamond painting as seen in my previous post.
February was a little less impressive at 3051.
I'm going to need a whopping 9237 to catch up and be back on track for a minimum stitch of 100,000 by the years end.
With the help of all the challenges from the Ultimate Cross Stitch group on FB and all the support I get from you wonderfully amazing and stunning followers, I know I will be able to achieve it.
Good news is that I got my new computer all set up at home and now I can access my emails and reply to all your brilliant and hilarious comments.
Happy stitching for March stunners, may this month be full of love and magical things.
Thank you so much for the visit.
xoxo Alicia
I am guessing needleminders are the cross-stitcher's jewelry hah! Love the Falcon one.
ReplyDeleteI bet that wisteria pathway would indeed smell like heaven on earth! :D
Great progress on all your stitching, hope you meet your goals for March. Love your new mystic stitch, so pretty.
ReplyDeleteWow you made amazing progress on your projects. Love the new start. I still haven't finished Literate Dragon which was from the same SAL as theatre if I remember correctly. Must get back to it some day. Best of luck with catching up on your goal this month. Looking forward to seeing your progress.
ReplyDeleteLove these and fantastic progress on everything!
ReplyDeleteFantastic progress on all of your projects Alicia.

All such gorgeous projects Alicia, I can't believe you can keep track of them all! You must never be bored.
ReplyDeleteI never have the patience to count my stitches, so I'm doubly impressed by your progress...
ReplyDeleteIf it helps I've just looked and my oldest WIP is 9 years old, and I'm only about half way through it. I reckon it'll be the same again (and the rest) before I finish it
Wow so many beautiful stitches on so many beautiful projects. Keep it up.
ReplyDeleteOh Alicia It's Heaven is BEAUTIFUL! I definitely can't wait to see more on that one! You managed a lot of stitches on Snow White and she is looking stunning!! Seems like you got in lots of stitches, congratulations!
ReplyDeleteOh, I love your new start, sooo pretty =) And your did also great on your other projects =)
ReplyDeleteI always try to get 100k stitches done, but I usually end up around 90k... Well, maybe this year we will both speed up ;-)
Fantastic progress! Snow is looking stunning, stunner!
ReplyDeleteAlso loving Theatre, could we actually be seeing a finish this month?
Beautiful work as usual
