London Calling


I’m so close to finishing Reflections of London! I’m really digging into it and I’m on the last part, the last corner. I keep reminding myself “this is the last landmark” as in, I just finished the last Big Ben in the pattern. I want to finish it by the new year because I ordered myself a Christmas present:
The Frosted Pumpkin’s Happily ever After kit! (I went with Aida fabric) The floss and fabric came today! I’ve seen a lot of progress pics of FP kits but this is my first try. So adorable. Plus! How easy is it to stitch one little section a month? I’ll still have lots of time to finish other projects.

Package!! Pick for scale.

How cute is this?!

They even sent a thread holder! And a hand written note! That's amazing.

All the floss was organized so perfectly…*sigh*

Do you make resolutions? I do. I try to make them manageable anymore, more like goals I can work on. I always strive to learn more spanish every year and I did make a lot of progress this year with Fluent Forever and the Leitner Box system. I will start that daily system in 2017 and continue learning ASL. I’ll practice both! (That goal is harder) The only other one is to finish as many cross stitch WIPs as I can. If that means one or two small ones or even only one epic project, that totally counts. A finish is a finish!
This was from Saturday...
