Almost There!

Peacock Tapestry is coming along great! I have now finished the top border, top two corner blocks, and two side borders.

I think once I get the two other corner blocks and the bottom border done, I will put it away for a while. I don’t want to get burned out on this large project. So I have to decide what to work on next. Do I start a new project that I am really excited about, or make myself work on or finish a WIP? I have Adrienne’s stocking, which is barely started. Then there is Jim’s woodland deer which is going well but kind of borning, because it is all browns and greens. I found a great new project in a British magazine on my iPad – a two parter of an African landscape. Huge and detailed, but gorgeous, with elephants, giraffes, lions, etc. I also have a DMC kit from Pollyanna Pickering which is similar, but a lot less work. And then the British magazine Cross Stitch Gold just put out a chart of a girl holding a peacock. I have already picked out the floss and fabric for that one, but won’t let myself start it until I get a grasp on some of my WIPs. Of course, I might change my mind. Oh, what to stitch next? Decisions, decisions…
