Month charts *updated 1st November*

Post by diamondradleylover »

As well as starting the gorjuss kit I have started/going to start two month charts.
I have picked country cottage needleworks cottage of the month and the drawn thread pocket calendar mini month charts.

I decided to start with October because it seemed to make sense. Here's the cottage of the month chart, for those who haven't seen it:

Image

I have made some progress on this one:

Image

After starting this one I fell in love with the drawn thread calendar one, in this one there is more special threads. I think most of them, if not all of them are silks. This is the chart:

Image

I'm thinking of starting this on turning leaves by jodyri designs (which is amazing):

Image

Hope you all like it. I'll definitely have a further update soon.

I've been interested in doing the Cottage of the Month series for a while now. I'm very interested to watch how yours progresses! They're adorable.

I kept seeing them being stitched and really wanted to do them so I decided I might as well just start it.

I've decided I'm going to use them like a calendar and put them inside a frame during that month and then swap them out at the end of them month. Hopefully I can get them stitched during the month though :lol:

I have an update on October cottage. I'm really enjoying stitching it. I just wish I had done more on it.

Image

I have also finished gridding and bobbinating so I can start the other October one. Here it is kitted up and ready:

Image

It's all silks so they feel amazing. I can't wait to start it :)
