New Projects to Prioritize

I went through a lot of kitted projects this month trying to whittle down to the ones I’d most like to get a good start on this year. And so now….announcing the WIPs to be in 2026!

Joy by Shakespeare’s Peddler. I did the conversion for The Attic! I want to stitch it for myself!

I’m still looking for fabric and have to pick between the 2 pinks.

Abundant Table from Erica Michaels.

The verse on this…I love it. And the colors. It is SO rich looking. It’s charted in silk and I have 36 count pecan butter linen for it.

Floral Motif Sampler from Scarlett House. Using The Attic’s silk conversion on 40 count Fragile. It will be gorgeous.

What can I say, the flower motifs are the best parts of a sampler for me. I have loved this design a long time. Time to stitch it.

Friendship Gathering from Blackbird Designs. Another favorite that has been kitted up for a while. I love the colors and the folksy design. I’ll be using the called for cottons on 36 count straw.

Leafy Tree from Mary Corbet.

I came across my kit when I was looking for something else and you know what? This is the year to stitch this one. It is so small, but packs a punch with the colors.

Don’t ask me which will be started first. I will stitch as my whims take me!
