Update on Cardinal Points

Here is my progress on Cardinal Points this week.  When I was finishing up the stitching session on Friday evening, I discovered a mistake and couldn't for the life of me find it.  Saturday afternoon I started looking for it again and eventually found it.   It took me all Saturday night to frog back to the mistake and then I started restitching.  I finally finished the restitching on Sunday night.  

In the afternoons I continue to stitch on PS 1998 yearly Santa.  I usually put a couple of strands of floss in Tuesday through Sunday.  Today will be my last Christmas in July Monday ornament start.  I have never had so many WIPs in my life.  I have Cardinal Points, 4 PS Santas and after today I will have 4 Christmas ornaments for a total of 9.

As promised pictures of my Christmas in July starts

Didn't make much progress on this in one day, did I?

I will pick one of these up on the 1st of the next 3 months and stitch on it until it is finished.  The snowflakes should only take a couple of days. I am going to stitch 2 on red, 2 on green and 2 on blue Aida.  I am planning on doing all 6 of the snowflakes and giving them to the Greats for Christmas 2023.

Another weekly progress on Cardinal Points

Growing slowly.  Still haven't heard from anywhere that GAST Raven is available.    I love this but I think I am growing a little tired of it.  I seem to only stitch one motif a night.  Maybe a little depressed that I can't get the Raven I need.

Today I started another Christmas ornament.  My 3rd one, well actually my 4th, for the month.  I finished the one I started on July 1st.  Today I started another snowflake on red using Ecru DMC floss.  Only one more Monday in the month.  I will take pictures of the 3 ornaments I have started so far this month and post them here tomorrow.  Hopefully! lol

I did not stitch the green backstitch boarder as the bird is up 1 stitch 
to high and I didn't feel like making adjustments.

Continued progress on Cardinal Points

 Here is my weekly progress on Cardinal Points in the past week.  The 1st picture is the area I concentrated on the past week and the 2nd picture is the whole project.  It is getting big and I am having problems photographing it.  I love it.  

July Christmas ornament is stitched

I started stitching this on July 1st and finished it this afternoon.  As I was stitching it I started thinking that I had stitched this once before. so, I started looking back through my pictures.  Sure enough I stitched it a few years ago and gave the finished ornament to Matt.  I will make sure I don't give this one to him.  LOL
