WIPocalypse - 28.12.12 - An overview of the year

I've spent the last few weeks stitching on another secret project so don't have anything to show for my last WIPocalypse post for 2012, I have however finished the small project so that's another finish for the year, unfortunately it will be another few months before I can reveal a picture.  Instead I thought I would review my progress for the year.

At the beginning of the year I had 13 projects on my WIPocalypse list and I managed to finish 4.

Baby Patchwork - Cinnamon Cat


Hickory Dickory Dock QS - HAED


Living with Charm - Lizzie Kate


Afghan for Sam


The other projects on my list and where I am currently up to with them are:

Gerbera Daisy Cushion


Six Fat Men - Lizzie Kate


Forbidden Doorway SK - HAED


Hanging Loose





Nativity




Rules for Life


Still can't show any pictures of my secret Ink Circles Project but it will be finished and pictures shown in 2013.

The knitted baby blanket and String of Hearts were never started.

I had a few new starts over the course of the year.

Perpetual Calendar by SamSarah Designs.


Welcome Banner by Emily Peacock



Sampler aux Bouquet by Jardin Parvin


Merry Christmas by the Letter - Lizzie Kate


My first Chatelaine - Sleeping Beautys Castle


So that is 2012 in stitching.  My hope for 2013 is to get some more projects finished and no doubt have more new starts.  I am going to do my best to have a stash diet in 2013 no more buying charts or other stash unless I need it to complete a current project.

I hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas and wish you all a very Happy New Year.

Thanks for sticking with my blog for the last 12 months.  I look forward to sharing the next year with you all.

Keep stitching and smiling
