WIPocalypse - January update

I only had time to work on one project this week:

A Petit Sampling Etui
January 1st

A Petit Sampling Etui
January 9th:

This might not look like much progress to the casual observer, but I finished all of the queen stitch flowers in the border, the first row of the alphabet, and started the second row.  Since the alphabet is over one and I can only stitch it when I haven't been staring at a computer screen all day I'm actually pleased with my progress. 

For the next update I hope to be finished with this square and well under way on the next one.

  3. Well done on the progress! Only a stitcher can understand how long even little progress takes. Good luck on getting the project finished.

  5. It is just looking wonderful. I am plowing thru some o/o myself right now. My eyes get tired too quick for it.

  6. Oh, I think stitchers know that "square inches covered" isn't always the most accurate measure of accomplishment. *nod* It's looking really good, and I think you got a lot done! :)

  8. I'm another WIPocalypse stitcher. I just stopped by to say Fantastic Progress. Every stitch you make it one stitch closer to a finish. Keep it up!

  9. Hi Carol, I too am WIPocalypsing it. Beautiful progress...I love the Queens stitch, but it does take more time than the easy xstitches. I'll post in a day or so....Until the next full moon...may your needle glide through the fabric.
