January Week 1 Progress

 I will try to make reports on this project ... maybe just a weekly cross stitch report about everything but, at least this this one is finished, it's all I will be working on.  I had already reported on this project for Thursday and Friday's stitching to today's report will start with Saturday and not actually be for an entire week. Going forward, these reports will be posted on Wednesday.

Some days I didn't take pictures and I'll try to do better.

Saturday's Stitching:



  • Top left - I stitched the top leaf.
  • Right side - I had already stitched those two yellow flowers, the leaf and the two vines (that look like legs) so yesterday I stitched the yellow flower, the two leaves with the little red flower, the two vines and the bottom larger flower.

Sunday's Stitching:


My goal for Sunday was to get to the bottom on the right side of the border. I almost made it. There are about 10 stitches left to make and I will have reached the bottom. I still have to go back and fill in some center stitches on flowers but I'll wait till I have the left side of the border stitched and do that.  Most of them have 2 - 4 stitches (each flower) so it will be a lot of starting and stopping.

Stitches made Sunday: 604
% Completed as of Sunday evening: 18.28%

Monday Stitching:

I started on the bottom tree on the right side of the house and finished the little piece left on the bottom of the right side border.

Tuesday's Stitching:

A second tree was started and about 2/3rds completed and several rows were stitched on the roof.

Wednesday's Stitching:



The roof was finished, more blue stitching on the house. The second tree was finished and the third tree was started.

As of the close of Wednesday's stitching, I'm 25.76% done. According to my calculations, that should mean I finish by the end of January but Markup is saying I'll finish February 8. I must prove them wrong!

Plans for Next Week:

  • Finish the top half of the house
  • Finish the third and fourth tree on the right side of the house
  • Finish the top border.
