Stitch 9 Plans

I already intended to focus on several projects in 2019, but I'm now modifying that slightly in order to participate in the #stitch9challenge issued by @farmgirlstitcher on Instagram.  The basic idea is to choose 9 projects that you intend to complete in 2019.  There are very few rules:  you create an album, stitch and show updates.  Easy enough.  Were half way thru January and I have all year to meet the challenge.  At last count there were over 300 stitchers who've accepted the challenge.

Y'all, I am a little mad with myself!  I have to create a caveat to my 9.  I've owned Gingerbread Village (Train) from Country Cottage Needleworks since they were brand new.  Would have sworn there were 8 total--all this time.  NOPE!! There are 11 charts to this series & yes I own them all!  I've completed 2, so that leaves 9.  Being that I'd already picked 3 largish WIPs for this challenge  + the ornaments,  I didn't want to drop them. SOOO...I have 12 in my stitch 9.  Four of which I haven't even started!  #morethan9 #sosueme


 Let the games begin!  

Here are my 9 (a-hem 12) projects:

1 - 9) CCN Gingerbread Village.  I almost completed the Train in November 2018 but alas I had to move on.  

Started most of them during Maynia 2018

10) Still planning to only work on this in the Winter time & anniversary date in Maynia. Looks just like it did the last time you saw it.  

By Cricket Collection Started Maynia 2016

11) I'd love to have this completed by August, but I'm giving myself all year.  I've almost completed the "June" band.  

Linen & Threads Mystery SAL 2017 

12) My ultimate goal is to complete this before the 1st anniversary of the start date! Looks just slightly different from the last time you saw it.

I'm so glad that Michelle didn't have a lot of stitch count, complex rules to deal with since we each stitch at our own pace. These are by far not the only projects I intend to work  on this year. I'm still going to work on smalls for my dough bowl & whittle down my WIP pile,  as well as stitch  items for Love Quilts USA.  

None of us knows what the future holds, but I enjoy planning and seeing what I can accomplish.  I hope you will as well.  Until next time, Stitch on!  = ) Pam
