I have the foundation of the central building done in the bottom now, and some backstitching on the side. Another part is definitely taking shape.

Crazy #5- European Fountain
This was a small kit I bought while in France a few years ago. I pulled it out and stitched it in a few days for the Crazy January Challenge. It was great to get one done!
Getting Things DONE
Just after the beginning of the year, I looked at the stuff in my stitch closet and saw a huge pile of things that were stitched but not finished. I decided it was time to buckle down and get things done. This is the first I picked - Jubilation. It's now an ornament.

Back to Leaves
Time to get working on the leaves again. I ended up frogging some on the left due to a counting error, and added a spine to the right leaf.
Crazy Start #3
I started my Take a Stitch Tuesday sampler on the third. The first stitch was fly stitches, so I made these little square fly stitch motifs. Each Tuesday Sharon Boggon adds a new stitch to experiment with. It's informal, so there's always an opportunity to jump in!
Lauguishing
I feel like I'm going so slowly on this project! I know that when I took it back up, I hadn't even started the door, and I've done at least three inches across since then. It's still really dragging to me.

Crazy January #2
I am subscribed to a Faberge egg series from The Needle House in Houston. It started in November, and, because of the mail situation, this is the only one I've received so far. The stitch guide and materials seem very complete. I hope to finish this one before the end of the year.
