I can't say I have a very long list of WIP's, which you can see in the sidebar, but for me it is rather long, as some of these projects have been on the side for a very long time.
At the moment I am only working on two projects: the first one I have already begun at the end of last year and it is a map of England sampler I am recreating and designing as I go along.
You can see its progress in my previous posts and here it is an update photo:
The picture isn't very good, as it is more colourful.
Stitching inside all counties takes a lot of work, but the worst it is
yet to come, as I will have to do the counting of each one of the
counties, so that I can design their names in cross stitch.
As I have seen in map samplers pics, the names of the counties should be written in capital letters and that will take a lot of space.
The second project I have already started this year, is a Needleprint competition called "A Mirror to my Art". Although I will give the updates on the project I won't be able to show any photos.
For the moment there isn't much to say, just that I have already got the mirror and I am around the design. I have also already decided I am going to embroider it in a traditional Portuguese stitch, which encompasses not only the stitches that can be used, but also the motifs. I'm very excited to see how it enfolds.
I hope next month I can say I have worked on other projects from my list...and that I have some finishes! That would be great.
