I'm having so much fun using the Random Number Generator to help me decide what to stitch each day! I'm glad that so many WIPs are getting more attention now, instead of just sitting in a box and waiting.

#9 Hummingbird. This is a free chart by Teresa Wentzler and can be found
HERE. I started this on Day #3 of the UCJC. It is on 16 ct Angel Blush Aida and will be 4.25" square. The leaves and flowers are stitched over 2, and the hummingbird will be stitched over 1. I did all the green in the leaves today. The white border is done with perle cotton.

#22 Cut Thru' Pirate Ship. This was my Day #23 start of the
Ultimate Crazy January Challenge, but after my first day of stitching, I realized that the fabric was turned the wrong way! So today I did some
reverse stitching and frogged out everything I had stitched before. It's time for a fresh start! It seemed to take me all day to get these stitches out on 18 ct Aida and I'm frustrated, so I'm going to put it away for now. You can buy the chart in the USA
HERE.

#37 Dance of the Geckos. I found this free cross stitch chart
HERE. I started this one in the
Super Duper Ultimate Crazy February Challenge but haven't touched it since. It will be a gift for my mom and is stitched on 14 ct black Aida using DMC Light Effects floss. I finished the purple gecko, but it still needs gold metallic floss for the eyes and the design on its back. There will be two more geckos in other colors.

Great progress! Hummingbird is going to be so lovely. :) I'm sorry to hear about all that frogging, that's no fun.
Great stitching. So does Pirate Ship count as a new start?;)
