You are more then welcome to join. All you have to do is post a picture on the first of what you are going to stitch and then post how far you are able to get on the 7th. Easy as pie. Look forward to seeing your UFO's

OK, I'm going to participate in the next one! Psyching myself up for next weekend. Here is my UFO, The Castle Sampler by Teresa Wentzler:

Image

I started work on this in 1992 (yes really.) Then stopped for over a decade - not much stitching at all in that period. I can't remember when I picked it up again but I think it was 2008 or so. Then I got bogged down in backstitching the figures (the castle part is done) in late 2010 and switched to The Enchanter. Thus far I've been a one-project-at-a-time stitcher, so the poor castle just sat there... you all have inspired me to make a move! See you later to report progress...

Beautiful. :applesauce: :applesauce: Before I knew about HAED TW was my favorite designer. Have to get back to my long neglected Fairy afghan with one of her seasonal fairies not finished. :oops:
I think you have done a fantastic job on this one. You certainly have very little left to do.

Thanks everyone for your very kind comments! :wub:

Saturday is the day that I shall start again on the Castle Sampler. I have no choice, really, as The Enchanter is ready to be washed prior to doing the last step of beading, and my threads for the next project haven't arrived yet.

Wishing everyone in the UFO Club good luck and motivation for the upcoming week!!!!

A little late in posting, but I'm determined to work on turning my pile of UFOs into finishes, so here goes. Up first is Cultured Pearls, A freebie chart from DMC from about 1999 or 2000.

This is what it will look like:

This is where I am:

Sorry for the poor pics. It really does look better in real life.

:applesauce: Beautiful stitching. Don't know how much was done before you picked it up again, but it certainly looks like you have been making progress on this one.
