I'm definitely going to make more time for mine, Vonna. I love it when I take it out, but I can only do the over one so long. Plus, I've been kinda busy, lol!
Vonna, I keep thinking about my poor Prairie Schooler ABC too. Maybe I should join your challenge. I'll have to see about my commitments though. See how I waffle? lol! Well, how about I promise to pull the piece out by the end of the year? lol!
I pulled out mine last weekend when I was cleaning out the sewing room. I'll work on it again. I love it.....debbie
OK Vonna ~ sounds good ~ I will pull mine out as well! We just need to attack this thing in small bits ~ one letter at a time (-:
I have been plugging away at this... and I do mean plugging. I love this project, but need just the right light and not to be exhausted! I am on D is for Drum right now and hope to finish E as well by the end of the year... anything else is a bonus.
I'm so ashamed...I haven't finished a single one...but I'm over-booked for the rest of the year, so I'll have to keep it on the back burner until January!
I stumbled upon this blog several months ago and it inspired me to begin the ABC project! So Dakar I have completed A through F. I also came up with a design to incorporate four seasonal PS patterns -- 2 at the beginning and 2 at the end. I will try to post a progress picture in the next week or so.
I often think about this project and want more progress but somehow never haul out the 4 ft rods to work on the behemoth. I will think about getting a regular goal because this is a fun project when I am actually stitching on it.
I want realistic goals, though. If I set the expectation too high then nothing will get done. 1/2 or 1/4 a pattern a month may be the most I can expect. I will have to test that.
I love these alphabet blocks.
Hi Vonna- I took up your challenge and will post about it today on my blog. So check it out!!
P.S. Thanks for the kick in the behind :)
I began the Alphabets today, gulp! I'm doing mine 9 horizontal and 3 vertical with an inch in between each for more decorative alphabets. I love the idea of adding textured stitches into each panel, perhaps with a few drawn thread ones too. Wish me well !
Thanks for taking care of my request.
I'm in for one block by the end of the year.
i am going to try!
Well, I'm posting this FAR after this was originally posted, but is anyone else working on these or planning to start soon? I just bought my linen and all the DMC floss! As soon as my linen arrives, I hope to start this on Monday!!
