ALLXX's WIPOCALYPSE-AUG


 Well I was a little busy in the month of July, I started and finished a Christmas in July SAL,





 a scissors fob for a friend

 and birthday gift for DD boyfriend. 
 I also completed the stitching of the 4th part of Around the World in 80 Stitches; I’ll add the rest of the beads at the end.
I started the leaf bunch band around my Banu design.
  Last but not least I worked on African Women. 
Well I hope this next month is as productive as the last and I can share more finishes and progress on more WIPs.  So I'm off to get started making those little xxs.  Thanks for stopping by and welcome to all my new followers.

You have done so much. I need to be more disciplined if I want to complete even 1/10th of the patterns I own before I die. Is that possible? LOL

Your women are looking so beautiful. It's funny that there are large areas of one color and yet it takes so long. That's not a criticism because when I made my little African dancer, she was the same way (same designer). I thought it would be a snap but it took a lot more time and energy than I expected. But the results are worth it. Keep going.

You have a lovely blog!

What a great month's stitching!

I have a new technique for Papillon ATW - stitch the outline for each month so I feel like I'm keeping up!! I'll fill in the speciality stitches as I can LOL.

Your's is amazing, it's a real inspiration to keep going.
