1st January 2012

Well....new year and lots of plans. One of them is to blog about the things I stitch and craft during 2012.  I was going to take part in the Cross Stitch Crazy 2012 challenge in which you choose 15 projects and start one new one each day in first 15 days of January and then finish them off at your own speed during the rest of the year.   However, I couldn't afford all the materials and threads I needed so I will do them at my own speed anyway.

So, yesterday I made a start on an ongoing project I am doing for a good friend.  A Husky, the project is a husky, not the good friend ha ha. It's done on 18count aida with DMC threads.  Lots of shades of grey.

I did 349 stitches during the afternoon and evening yesterday...thought it would be good to count them so I can see how many I do as a way of charting progress.  The other way is to take pics each time as a visual way to see how I am doing lol.  349 stitches in the same colour does get a bit boring though lol.

Well must go back to it ....
