WIP Wednesday 05/21/14

I am afraid I did not make any progress on the quilt hanging I am making with the Winter/Christmas blocks from the CQI round robin.

So, I am sharing the progress on the cross-stitch I began about 3 weeks ago.

This is from the Freebie Santa and the Mouse chart at heavenandearthdesigns.com.

I have not shared the title or the picture of the cross-stitch with my family.  My youngest is the only one willing to even guess what it might be at this point.  He thinks it is a sky at the top and part of a landscape or buildings on the left.  Not a bad guess.

To see what WIPW projects Sharon and others have been completing, check out this week's WIPW post at Pin Tangle - do not forget to check out the links in the comments.  You will see some amazing work! (To learn more about WIPW, click here.)

Last Week's Goals:
  1. The wall hanging I plan to create with all of my CQI Winter/Christmas blocks 
  2. My CQJP 2013 May block - better late than never?! (It is referred to as Block 4 if you follow this link.)
  3. A crazy quilted hexagon to participate in my first swap with the World Wide Crazy Quilters Yahoo! Group
  4. A change purse for myself
  5. Complete my April CQJP 2014 block.
  6. Have a count of at least 50,000 words for my CampNaNoWriMo novel.
  7. Make a purse with my April CQJP 2014 block.
  8. Embellish my May CQJP 2014 block.
  9. Make a purse with my May CQJP 2014 block.
  10. Complete a gift by the end of May.
  11. Embellish one of Lisa's CQI Hearts DYB RR blocks. (They really are GORGEOUS!)  I have finished at least half of the block and hope to share it before next Wednesday.
  12. Freebie Santa and the Mouse Ornament -  Heaven and Earth Designs chart by Michele Sayetta and artwork by Scott Gustafson. (I believe the ornament is a portion of the chart "Santa and the Mouse.") Complete 100 x-stitches by next week. I finished at least 300 x-stitches (and have SO far to go!) :)

Nice progress! I like seeing the picture emerge as the stitching is done - like magic.

Pamela, somehow I missed your comment until today. Thank you! My boys have no idea what it will be when it is done, so they share your view - it is like magic watching a picture form.
