This year, I did not spend nearly enough time working on my Charting Creations "Fractal White Tiger" project, featuring artwork by Ricky Barnard.
Feeling a bit overwhelmed with 3 large projects in my rotation, I focused on the smallest and finished it earlier this month. So, in 2019 there will be a lot more progress on this piece!
632 stitches were added this weekend.
This is how it looked in September.
This collage shows progress made in 2018.
5,779 stitches were added.
4 of 30 pages are done and the project is 17.15% complete.
I look forward to sharing a lot more progress in 2019.

Winnie the Pooh September-October update
I have a bit of progress to share on Winnie the Pooh, from the September-October timeframe. After that, I set it aside in favor of my 2 other full coverage projects. That was a good plan, since I finished Fall Fairy and got close on Charmed Santa. Pooh will get more love in January.
Progress at the beginning of the year, and my last check in
Currently:
So, I estimate I did around 14,604 stitches this year, a bit less than last year (15,500), but still a fair chunk of progress. That included two over 1 sections (Owl, and Tigger/Piglet), which take longer to stitch. Next year I'll try a thimble; there is a lot of petit point remaining on the last page (in progress). About 8,000 stitches remain and I'll try to finish by April. Obviously that works out to 2,000 per month but with only 8 WIPs, I should be able to devote the time and make it work.
Happy New Year everyone!

First Christmas Stocking by Cross My Heart Designs
I did not stitch on Reptiles at all this month. This is not full coverage, but close. I am such a slow stitcher, but my goal is to have it stitched for 2019 Christmas. But my fingers are itching to work on Reptiles!
Does anyone know if we are doing this blog again next year? I do enjoy seeing everyone's posts.
