I've all but finished page 8 of 36. Last year I managed to stitch just the one page, and I stitched on JOF for only a bit over one month. In 2009 I stitched on it for 7 straight months, and got 7 pages finished. This project has been a steep learning curve for me. I know know that finishing projects is what I like to do - I'm not that keen on working away on the one project for years and not feeling as if I'm making much headway. Still - I started it, and I love the design, so I will finish it - eventually (God willing). I'm unlikely to ever attempt another project of this size - I'll stick to L&L in future. My current goal is to stitch page 9, and I'd like to have that finished by mid-May. Here's hoping!Wednesday, March 2, 2011
Jolly Old Fellow is back ...
This is where I finished when I packed him away last year:
