Friday Finish - Wild Garden Box Top

This piece was started as a stitch group project and has been hanging around, unfinished, for too long. I finally filled in some of the empty spaces and finished it as a box top.  These simple boxes are available in different sizes at Daiso for 100 yen each.

WIP/UFO Update - End of Year 2025

I’ve had a pretty good year with finishes, especially with all the bed quilts. My last WIP/UFO Update was end of Mid-Year 2025, and can be seen here. 

This is my latest update. I’ve taken out the finished projects and added the newly started ones. Bold titles show the ones I have worked on in 2025. I also wrote if I hope/plan to work on or finish these projects in 2026.

WIP/UFO End of the Year Update

I saw this in the window of a T-shirt Shop.  Luckily I never have to say that.

I last posted about my WIP/UFO's here. This is my latest update. I've taken out the finished projects and added the newly started ones. Bold titles show the ones I have worked on in 2023. My Summer One Thread a Week Challenge helped me make progress and even finish some things and take them off this list. I think I've had a good stitching year!
