Week one of Year of starts with finishes!!!!

HI everyone!  I hope you have had a great stitchy week.  Mine was busy!!  I can tell you this year of starts is going to be interesting. I was able to start 8 new projects!!!!  There was a reason I started so many.  I didn't realize how many new 2017 SAL's I joined in my Facebook Groups.  I only spend 30 minutes on a new start.  I have figured out a rotation system...it might not make sense to you but I think it will work for me.

As I said I only spend 30 minutes a day on my new starts, then I put them away.  I then pull out a WIP to work on for the week.  Here is how my rotation is going to be for the month:
Week 1:  Halloween Project -this goes with the Trick or Treat SAL for Stitch Maynia
Week 2:  Christmas/Winter project - goes along with a SAL Stitch Maynia and another group
Week 3-  One of my Miras, L & L -  Just a pretty lady
Week 4 -  Designer Sals - Cloud Factory and Frosted Pumpkin
Weekend Stitching: I will work on 2 full coverage pieces for 2 to 3 hours

I am picking a project that I want to finish by the end of year.  I hope to have several finishes this year.   Which, I already have 3!!!  I finished the head, dress and her shoes.

Faery Tales Update:  I try and work on this at least 3 times a week....here is this weeks progress.  This is also my HAED Challenge 4 piece...I just have to stitch this whole page.

New Starts:

Day 2 Start:  Brook Books Bride Ornaments - Home

Day 3 start- Xmas Stats here and I started with day 1

Day 4 start - First Christmas Wall hanging - I started with the upper left corner. The Alphabet Blocks.

Day 6 Start:  Brooke Brooks Advent Animal Calendar = Katie Kitty  Free download

I wasn't sure if I showed this one or not...Sue Hillis 12 Days of Stitchers Christmas.  I was in a daily SAL on Stitch Maynia...I didn't get all 12 days in there!

Day 8 - Mill Hill Country Church    If you look under the words country church you can barely make out a ecru blob. I started on the church

Day 7 Mill Hill Book Seller 

Day 5: Disney Dreams Snow White.  I am staring one of these on the 5th of every month since Walt Disney's birthday is December 5th.  

Middle Earth Wednesday - I am working on this HUGE chart every Wednesday since that is the middle of the week.   I ran out of DMC 920 so I need to run by Hobby Lobby to pick some up.

Weekend Stitching this week:

Victorian Christmas Eve:

This is the upper left hand corner.  I worked on this Sunday afternoon.  I probably would have gotten more done if Bert hadn't convinced me we needed to take a cat nap! 

A Wintery Heirloom - HAED.  Yes... I am still working on this one even though I cringe when it is time.  I am going to finish this design!!!

 Here is my progress...Mark and I were binge watching Dexter on Netflix so not as many stitches on it. I did put in some!  Every stitch counts!!

That was my first week!!!!!    Until Next week!!!!
