For those who find stitching boring – skip this post. You have been warned.
Anyway – I have five projects left to finish I just realized, looking at the list that they are ALL 2024 starts. So I met the goal of finishing all the old projects on my list. Next year? I might have to dig through a few more bins and see what else I can dig up that is yet unfinished. And my next year’s limit on stitches per project is going to be about 10k.
Back to my calculations – the list is as follows with the first two being completely non-portable.
324 – 6628 stitches left
IAT – oops – No Time Like the Preset – 9529
Halloween Clock – 4778 (SAL)
Smaug – 6400? best guess with 7 sections to go could be a lot less (SAL)
Vampyrum- 9551 (SAL)
which best guess is about 34000 stitches give or take (33985….) And these numbers are AFTER the 1151 I stitched today.
Miriam & I leave for Heathrow on the 30th of the month. So take a couple of days off the available stitching time, along with Halloween. And then there are errands, potential Poll Work. But Smaug, the Clock & Vanpyrum could all come with. But if I get more than a couple done before then … New Cruise, new start – right?
I will concentrate on the two projects that aren’t portable – 324 & IAT.
The first page (½) is complete and I am 17 motifs into page two (170/324) so finally over ½ way.
See what I mean, Army folk? Boring….
