Theme-A-Licious March Madness (week 1)

The theme for this month is March Madness, "Work on something different every day... it's madness... of the funnest possible kind."  I used the Random Number Generator to pick a number from 1-96 for a WIP from my WIPocalypse list to stitch on each day.  I'll post an update every Saturday with the choices for the prior week.

March 1 - #3, Thai Dancer:  I stitched more of her arm and the cuff of jewelry.
Thai Dancer update #3
March 2 - #23, Boule Pastel:  I filled in the yellow stripe of this ornament on perforated paper.

March 3 - #76, Alice from Resident Evil:  I stitched some black shadow by her face.

March 4 - #39, Beach Babe:  I stitched some purple stripes in her swimsuit.

March 5 - #31 - Leo:  I stitched from his tail down to his rear paw.

March 6 - #4 - Thomas Kinkade's Lamplight Bridge:  I stitched the grass and rocks along the shore under the bridge.

March 7 - #45 - Halloween Happiness:  I finished the white part of the moon, still needs more gray.  Thanks to Lindsay, I'm using the new Q-Snap huggie that she made for me!

Crazy January start #30

Day #30 of the Ultimate Crazy January Challenge is The Boys are Back in Town from Just Another Button Company.  I used DMC variegated floss instead of the Weeks Dye Works, Gentle Art, and Crescent Colours floss listed in the pattern.  I really need to practice stitching with variegated floss, since I'm not too excited with how this looks right now!  LOL.  This has 8 buttons from JABC for the mummy, vampire, and monster heads, a bat, owl, skull, spider, and pumpkin.  I'm stitching on dark gray 14 ct Aida and it will be about 7" x 5".

I pulled out another Halloween design from my WIPocalypse list, Halloween Happiness, an Imaginating chart.  I haven't touched this one since the first day when I started it last January. Today I stitched part of the white moon.  This is on 18 ct brown Davos fabric.

I also finished the January ornament for the Hallowe'en Ornie SAL.  It's not finished-finished yet.  I just folded the fabric to see how it will look whenever I try to make it into an ornament some day.
Skeleton - FINISHED!

Crazy January starts 10-12

I'm still having fun using the Random Number Generator to choose a new start each day from my UCJC 2013 page!

Day #10 is Fall Welcome, an Imaginating chart by Diane Arthurs.  I started with one of the pumpkins.  It is stitched on 14 ct Lambswool Aida and will be about 4" x 15".

Day #11 is Halloween Happiness, an Imaginating chart by Sandra Cozzolino.  I stitched the dark part of the moon.  It will be 3.5" x 11.5" on 18 ct Davos fabric. I don't know the color name, some kind of brown.

Day #12 is Hamburger & French Fries from the Incredible Edibles designs.  I started stitching the top and bottom bun on a Charles Craft huck towel with a 14 ct Aida insert.  I might give this away as a gift.  It all depends if I fall in love with it or not!  LOL

I bought an 11" x 14" red metal frame at Joann's for So Many Tools.  I didn't want to get something too big with a mat.  Red is my dad's favorite color!
So Many Tools - FRAMED!
Happy Birthday, Dad!
