Here is the latest on my Wizard of Oz. I had hoped to get more done his past weekend but with a four day weekend coming up - I more than plan to make up for it! Here's to everyone having a wonderful Easter weekend!
Happy stitching!

'Unspoken' - March Update
I procrastinated this month because I made an error last month. I thought I might work around it, but in the end I knew I would have to frog, and I hate picking out stitches on this tiny fabric! But I finally did it and restitched, then got a little more done.
Last month:
This month:
A few more shades of gray and a little more across the top. This whole page is just greyscale sunbeams, but the next pages will be fun :D If I go across, I get tree branches and the start of the Elf's hair, if I go down, I get the small figure of the Queen (the artist has stories on her website to go with the pictures, so I know she is a Queen. I just can't remember their names! I need to look them up)

Elaine's Dark Force non-update
Like others here, I made no progress on Dark Force this month. Zero. Zip. Nothing. Nada. I have some unanticipated time off in April (medical leave) so hopefully I can finish up my current rotation project and pick Dark Force back to get some done before the next update.
Cinderella's Castle
I have a little more progress to show. I've been distracted with starts (today's the last one, yay!), and now I'll be doing the A to Z Blogging Challenge in April. But slow progress is still progress.
Where I was at the end of February:
Where I am now:
I am very happy to say that I finished all of this shade of blue for one page. Now I get to work with a different shade of blue!
Thanks for reading and looking.
Happy Stitching :-)

March Update
Hey everyone I've got an update for paradise. I just finished the first half of the 5th (I think) page.
I've still got a long way to go. I switched from stitching in hand to using a scroll frame and I've gotten quite a bit slower. But that could also be because for some reason my floss keeps breaking. And because I'm still learning.
For those of you who don't read my blog the phrase is "smell the sea and feel the sky. Let your soul and spirit fly". I'm doing it in 2 lines so that just shows you how much I still have left.
It's been great watching your projects grow!
March Update - Hummers
I have been soooo out of the loop! Too many things going on here to even have time to stitch let alone blog. :-( I promise to try despirately to be better with all of this in April. :-)
Needless to say I didn't even get to pick up Hummers all month. Sad. But here's where we left off last month...

Progress on Alicia, the strawberry pirate
March Update for His Eye is on the Sparrow
Here is my progress on His Eye is on the
Sparrow. I completed page 1 and now
working on page 2. A little frogging
here and there. Not as much stitching as
I had wished to do but that is the way it goes when you catch the bug that is
going around. Spent a couple days just
laying on couch/bed. Hope that is the
last of winter illness. Sun is shining
more daily and warmer temps are helping.
the daffodils are starting along with lots more birds at the
feeders. Looking forward to warmer
weather in Kansas!
I love reading everyones responses and updates. Keep it up!

Leonore's March Update
The month is almost over, so it's time for the monthly checkin here. I'm quite content that I managed to keep my pace with Dark Force and still finished one column (800 stitches) a week. Right now I'm only missing one more column to finish page 2, so I will do a full shot again some time in April I guess :) And if you look closely, you can see a bit of Darth Vaders helmet in that lower right corner!
Sarah's March Update
I didn't get much progress this month. No new stitches put in, but I did frog several more rows of the top. It is slow tedious work and I'm so scared that I'm going to put a hole in my fabric. Hopefully I will make better progress in April.

Serenity Harbor - March
During March I stitched a few birds and some tree tops! I'm pleased to say that I was able to finish the full section for this month, but I might fall behind soon :( My LNS is sending out my floss over the next few months, and unfortunately they're missing one of the next colors and so haven't sent the next batch yet. I haven't seen April's pattern yet, so I'm not sure how far I can go before I reach a floss I don't have yet...

Susan's March update
Despite all my good intentions, I missed the mid-month question again. But will answer it anyway...
My favorite WIP is Mirabilia's Santa's Magic. I really enjoy Santa/St. Nicholas/Father Christmas pieces and this one is no exception. The things I like most are the non-traditional colors - purples, blues, and yellows and the fact that the fabric plays such an important role in the design. You can change the feel of the piece by changing the fabric. I also think he would make an awesome wizard. Here's where he is right now:
Now on to my New Stitchy Start progress. I haven't had as much time to stitch on Shakespearean Fantasy as I would have liked, but I am happy with my progress. This is definitely a slow and steady piece.
Here's where it was last month:
