A Wrap-Up of 2020 Stitching

 By my count I had 36 finishes in 2020, they're posted in a tab above or come watch my wrap-up YouTube video at Minnie Gray - All XXs (link is to the right).  

To see more of my day to day progress of my stitching follow me on Facebook- Minnie Gray and minniegray5806 on Instagram.

I am participating in a stitching challenge on Facebook, it's called WIPGO. There is a board set up like Bingo and this challenge is hosted by a fellow flosstuber - "Jessie Does Stuff". You assign your choice of WIPs and goals to the blocks on the board in any order and number them 1-12, free space, 14-25. The host will call two numbers per month or a third if the free space is called, the challenge is to accomplish your preset goal during the year 2021. Last year each goal had to be reached by the end of the month the number was called. (That's how I will be playing this year too it's more of a challenge for me).

In my flosstube video #61 I showed all of my 2020 WIPs you can check them out there. The numbers called for January's WIPGO are 6,13(free space) and 18, since I filled in my free space with a wip I'll have 3 goals for the month and they are a finish on:

1. Patriotic Lady designed by Rachael Moore and you can purchase this design at www.etsy.com/shop/senistitch/ 


2. Just Me is  a chart my niece had created for me one year as a birthday gift. It's from a picture of me! This design will get 1000 stitches.


3. Fireside Sampler is designed by Diane Grick from Silver Creek Samplers (www.downbysilvercreek.blogspot.com) this design will also get 1000 stitches.  They may get more but I like to set realistic goals.

I also have a few new starts that I hope to be able to work on in 2021- "Moonshine" another from Silver Creek Samplers




Natural Beauty 2 from Filanthrope Broderies


And last but not least Harriet Tubman from The Primitive Hare
