2012 WIPocalypse - Fourth Full Moon

Hi, stitch fanatics -

Another month with stitching ADD!  I keep having to adjust my WIPocalypse list to accommodate all the new starts I have made this year.  Will I ever learn?

This past month has been a sad and hectic one.  I have managed to stitch a little on the two projects my guild is working on for Christmas in July 2013 SAL, Victoria Sampler's Twelve Days and BBD's Christmas Garden.  I'll show those next month when the photos will, I hope, have more progress to see.

I also started BBD's recent limited edition pattern, Wild Garden, on which I plan to include my Mother's initials and birth and death dates.  Then Thursday I looked at my pattern for Spring Eggs III from Sandra at Homespun Elegance - Plain & Fancy Collection and thought, "I can get these three little eggs stitched by Easter, and just assemble them afterward."  That would have been an OK plan, had I not stitched the chick on the first egg in totally the wrong place, which, of course required unstitching and restitching.  Oh well, life goes on.  Here are my two photos for the month:

Wishing everyone a Happy Easter weekend.  Be well.
