International Hermit and Stitch Weekend (IHSW) March 2014

I am so excited that I had some time to cross stitch this past weekend (3/21-3/23).  I was going to rotate projects, but I ended up just working on the Wolf Bookmark #3 (Artecy).  This will end up being a gift.  I'm hoping to have this done before the end of April, as the person's birthday is in May.

I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!!

First WIPocolypse of 2014 and my 14 in 14

     So it's been awhile.  I have been super busy with real life this year!  I am super excited to be getting back to my stitchy life!  In 2014, I will be participating in the Totally Useless Stitch Along or TUSAL, the WIPocolypse 2014, and the International Hermit and Stitch Weekend (IHSW).  If you may be interested in participating in any of these challenges please click on the name and you will be redirected to the proper sites.  I will eventually be putting up buttons for these on the side of my blog when I have the opportunity.
     Now we have come to the time where I tell you a little about myself.  I taught myself how to cross stitch when I was about 15, but there was a long period in my life that I didn't cross stitch.  As an adult, I have picked up projects and books along the way but I didn't get back in to cross stitching seriously until Fall 2011.  I live in New Hampshire, USA, and generally love to travel!  Last year, I chose 13 projects to complete in 2013.  I did not complete nearly that many, but I loved having the motivation of a list.  So this year I have chosen 14 projects to complete in 2014.

My 14 in 14 are:  (I have photo's of the projects I have already started.)
