Stitch Around the World Update

I have been part of  StitchTalk , which is a FB group for Stitching Challenges focusing on patterns from Heaven and Earth Designs ( HAED) . I have participated for the past year and Half.  I have a habit of adjusting the challenge to give myself enjoyment and avoid burn out. Recently these challenges have a prize element but i chose to stitch along but not for the prized. The ultimate goal is work on the Large projects and make progress. A stitch is one stitch closer to finish. Finishing a HAED is not quick process. It is more like Marathon. I am crazy enough to have 4 HAED in my rotation. I might be lucky to finish two  of them by time Oliver goes to College in ten years those are the smaller ones.

This year's challenge is year long challenge  called Stitch Around the world.

For the Stitch Around the World Challenge , I have been working on Heaven and Earth Designs A Stitch in Time Ornament. I have changed this challenge from a daily challenge to a weekly challenge. I have deviant from the original challenge as posted in StitchTalk. I am still enjoying my journey.
