WIP Wednesday

A little late but I had to write my WIP Wednesday post. As I mentioned in an earlier post, I haven’t been following my rotation. I did work on Fergie and Fergus which was also the one day SAL for the 24th of April called “Purple Haze”. Purple Haze is a one day SAL, part of Stitch Maynia Facebook group, which we had to stitch using only the color purple.

This was my starting point:

This is where it stands right now:
Not much but there are stitches there. Anyway, that was my WIP Wednesday 🙂

Stitch Maynia

Hola Stitchers!

I’ve been a bad stitcher lately. I haven’t been following my rotation because I’m excited about an event that will start on May 1st and I’ve been getting ready for it. Stitch Maynia will start this Sunday! For those of you who don’t know what that is, Stitch Maynia is an event in the Facebook group that I am a member of: Stitch Maynia 🙂

Well, this event started last year where a group of stitchers got together doing something crazy: 15 starts for the first 15 days. However, others got even crazier and started 1 project every day of the month. That’s 31 starts!

Personally, since it’s my first year in Stitch Maynia, I’ll start small and do 15 new starts the first 15 days.

This is my plan for Stitch Maynia:

May 1st: Pumpkin Passport by The Frosted Pumpkin Stitchery (yes, I’m joining the fun)

 

May 2nd: I Love Coffee by Soda Stitch (Freebie)

Bloghop: Subscriptions

Bloghop question: What stitching subscriptions do you currently have and love?

This question was posted back in February and I’m a little late answering as I just found this bloghop event in Stitching the Night Away website. To answer this question, I’d have to say that the only subscriptions I have is Just Cross Stitch Magazine and Cross Stitch and Needlework Magazine. I just signed up for the latter one and I’m still waiting for my first issue. These two magazines are my favorite ones by far.

My plans are to sign up for fabric of the month, thread of the month, and stitchybox. I’m actually looking forward to that.
