Good stitching folks :applesauce: :applesauce:

I was going to work on my Santa which I havn't touched for a couple of years. I had previously photocopied the chart which is 2, A3 sheets and stitched about 400 stitches but when I went back to it I noticed that in the middle where i had started stitching there were 4 horizontal rows missing, I coulbn't have copied it properly :( . So some of what I had done was wrong :roll: , I decided to frog it all and at some time will start again but I guess it is not a UFO now :thinks: so will find one of my many others for next month

Kazzi that looks great!!!!

Oh Janet that is really to bad. I have done the samething but lucky for me I found the mistake before to many stitches were made.

So do we continue to stitch until we go to bed tonight and then that is the end of UFO week or do we stop now and show our progress????

You have all made some wonderful progress. I am also very pleased with the progress I made this week. I have 2 complete snowmen/women finished and on to the next one. I finished page 3 and got about 1/2 of page 4 done.

Here is the overall view.

Image

Since I decorate in blues and silver I have changes some of the red colors to make it match better.

This is a close of the banner which reads Merry Christmas. But the silver is a bit hard to read. I am thinking of changing it to black but hate to take out all of the stitching.

I have made very little progress as compared to my last month's. I have been so much overloaded with office & home works lately and have been having a hard time juggling them all that I could only take little extra time to xstitch :doh: :roll:

Anyway, here it is! :wink: ...and hope to have good progress next month! :thinks:

You are all doing great with your UFO's and just remember any progress is taking you a step nearer to completion, which you possibly wouldn't have done without UFO week, well done all :applesauce: :applesauce:

Well, I had planned on getting N, O and P finished this week, but I've only managed N and am almost finished O, so I'll get that one done tonight. P will have to wait till next month.

There are some lovely projects here, and a lot of great progress this week! It's nice to see so many beautiful, but neglected projects getting the attention the deserve.

Rose, I'm wondering if you might be able to use a blend of black or dark blue blended with silver on the Merry Christmas part of your tree skirt to keep it consistent with your color scheme, but allow it to stand out more? It would still probably involve frogging though, so it may not be worth it.

I managed to finish almost all of my UFO this week - just a few more stitches, and about half of the backstitching. I think I'll just continue on an hopefully finish this tonight. I think I may need to change the color of the blue backstitching, as it isn't showing up well against the fabric. Progress pic as of yesterday night:

Everyone had been pretty busy this UFO week! I kind of forgot about UFO week until it was the 3rd...whoops! but I've been working on my Tenderness at Sunset. I have two more fish before I conclude my UFO week. Pics tomorrow, I promise!
