1,279 stitches were added to Charting Creations Fractal White Tiger, a chart based on artwork by Ricky Barnard.
Next month, I will surpass the 24,000 stitches milestone.
This is how it looked last month.
I find the progress a bit difficult to see; however, the top 2 rows and 2 columns on the left side of the page are complete.
December is a busy month, but I would love to finish page 7 before the end of the year.
I wish you all happy stitching!

Winnie the Pooh II October Update
Hi friends! I worked on Winnie the Pooh as part of a Stitch-a-thon weekend at the end of October. My time was divided with sewing my son's Halloween costume, but I still managed about 1700 stitches.
Previous progress:
New progress:
I decided I needed another page finish for my Stitch from Stash budget so I went back to Page 1 and did the 1 x 1 section, swarm of bees I suppose.
First time using a magnifier! I was able to see it fine with the help of the magnifier and extra light, but it was so tight on the fabric (28 count) that I hurt my left index finger a little, from pushing the needle through from the back. Next time I may use a thimble. Page 2 has a much larger 1 x 1 section (the owl)... you can see the outline of his wing on the right side near the balloon.
I love working on this piece, at my current pace (a few days per month). That won't be enough to finish anytime soon, even next year, but I'm fine with that.
