SK Effects of Caffeine - SAL Update 18


1,142 stitches have been added to my Heaven and Earth Designs (HAED) Storykeep Effects of Caffeine cross-stitch project since our last update. This sleepy dragon is one of my favorite pieces of art by Randal Spangler!


A bit of the moon is beginning to appear on the cup. Page 3 (of 4) should be finished by our next update on January 26th. 

This is how it looked in our last update.

With my goal to add 650 stitches every 3 weeks, I should have a finish to share on June 21st!

I am participating in the 100 Days of HAED Challenge through the Stitchtalk HAED Challenges Facebook Group. My goal is to add 30 stitches a day to this piece every day January 1st - April 9th, so I hope to have a finish to share before June. We shall see...

Thank you for visiting! I do hope you will stop and visit the other bloggers participating in this SAL. We are happy to have AJ joining us! 

If you are interested in participating, Avis hosts the SAL and has more details on her blog (see the first link below.)

Happy New Year!
Renee

  10. For some reason, I don't see a cup of coffee. I see a hot bath. LOL I'm sure the cup will become clearer, but nice to know what it is. Best of luck with that goal!
