Winnie the Pooh II June update
So I gave Winnie the Pooh a Stitchathon weekend in June and I was really into it, I counted 2,076 stitches! (Stitchathon is an event with the Cross Stitch Finish Line group on FB) Previous:
Currently:
It was really fun to stitch Eyeore, so that part went quickly. The next few columns will reveal Rabbit, and now it's another Stitchathon weekend now with Pooh on the scroll frame. I'm shooting for 1200 stitches but 1500 wouldn't be bad!

Fractal White Tiger June 2018 Update
This is actually more of a May update than June. I did not add any stitches to my Charting Creations Fractal White Tiger project in April.
I did manage to add 1,603 stitches to this piece between May 2nd and May 8th. Would you believe I have not touched a needle since then? (I am going through serious withdrawals.) So, no stitches were added in June either.
I am eager to see how much progress I can make in July.
Happy Stitching,
Renee

Winnie the Pooh II: April-May updates
Hello friends, it's been a busy spring and I forgot to post April so today we'll do a double update. I've given it 2 weekends, or about 5 days since then. Previous progress:
Current progress:
I have stitched on 4 columns since then, or about 2000 stitches. The empty area will be Tigger pushing Piglet in a wheelbarrow, stitched over 1, in the background. That is the most complex of all the over 1 sections and the pattern directions say to stitch it last. The little bit of grey at the edge of the column, beneath Tigger, is Eyeore's tail. I'm pretty excited because the next few columns will reveal the rest of Eyeore.

Winnie the Pooh II March update
Hello friends, March was a good stitchy month. Winnie the Pooh only got 2 days, but that was enough to get about 1500 stitches. Previous:
I finished page 2 (upper right) using blending filament and also filled in some ninja stitches. Backstitching did not seem appealing so I moved onto the next page (bottom left). The first two columns, including the bottom corner, are finished. It was fun to stitch those bright reds & pinks, but that entire area will be covered in a plethora of french knots. Good thing I don't mind french knots, but those will be done last as I don't like having them rolled up on the scroll.
