Baby's Garden Quilt

I finished my rotation on Baby's Garden Quilt by Janlynn.  It's a cute little kit I picked up somewhere.  It doesn't look like much progress, but I finished the watering can, almost finished the bear on the left, and began the bear on the bottom.

February WIPocalypse Check In


Topic:  I have a rotation system in place so I really don't find myself in stitching ruts very often.  I have a basket with 4 project bags in them.  Each night, as I'm relaxing for bed, I grab the project bag in front.  I stitch while listening to an audiobook (each CD is approximately an hour, so I get an hour of stitching in before bedtime).  When the disc is over, I place that bag to the back of the basket.  When I don't feel like working on one of these projects, I always have a Mill Hill kit lying around to occupy my time with.

This month I am working on Coke Bears by Stoney Creek, Baby's Garden Quilt a kit by Janlynn, Too Much Honey by Leisure Arts, and the Fairy of Destiny SAL by Passione Ricamo.

January Theme-a-licious

Even though Heather from It's Geek to Me isn't continuing with her theme-a-licious challenge, I'm continuing with her themes.  The few months I was able to participate, it really kept me motivated.  So I have begun recycling her themes from 2013 and stitched on a garden this month in January.  I chose to work on my Around the World in 80 Stitches project.  Tons of flowers going on there.
