March Madness - Theme-a-licious update.

Well, it did start off quite well...at least I think it did.  I'm pretty sure I stitched a little on each of these in March but there is absolutely no way on this earth that I managed to do 31 different projects.  That was due to it being assignment time and lots of reading for the module.  I can't wait to have all this free time to stitch!

Joan Elliott - Unicorn
All through the Night - Oh Christmas Tree
CCN - Santa's Village
JBW Designs - A Very Merry Christmas
CCN - A Place we call Home
Nora Corbett - Faerie Spring Fling
HaED - Santa and the mouse
Mirabilia - Touching the Autumn Sky
 
Praying Hands - Footprints
I think I stitched on all of these in March.  Hopefully April will be a bit of an improvement!

Days 8, 9 and 10

Here are my Crazy starts for days 8, 9 and 10.  As you can see, there is as much amazing progress as all my other starts!

Day 8 was Footprints by Praying Hands. Why, oh why have I fallen for a design that it pretty much all backstitch?  Am I totally mad?  (Don't answer that!)

Praying Hands - Footprints
Stitched on SMF - Rhapsody

Day 9 was Honeysuckle Courtyard which was also a Turtle Trot piece.  This is the start of band 3.  See yesterday's post for the reason I started there!

Day 10 is a Mirabilia - Faerie Spring Fling.  I am starting at the bottom and working my way up to her face. It does mean though, that I am stitching the design upside down so that my hand is not touching the stitching more than it has to.
