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 1-95 for a WIP from my
WIPocalypse list to stitch on each day. I'll post an update every weekend with the choices for the prior week.
March 22 - #51,
Yo Ho Ho Ho: I stitched the pirate Santa's hat.

Best of Friends: I stitched a little more in the lower left corner. This whole design is printed on the Aida so I don't have to look at a chart. It's so easy! The colors will all wash out with water when I am done.

March 28 - #35,
Easter Hang-Up: I finished the basket and stitched the background using Dragonflylotus Handspun Handpainted wool thread in
Sunlit Quackenbush, but the 5-yard skein (1 ply) wasn't enough with only 6 stitches left at the bottom to do, so I'll just change the border design a bit, unless anyone out there has a little 6-inch piece to spare?

My final Theme-a-licious blog post will be on April 1, with the last 3 days of the month and all the March Madness links. Happy Stitching, everyone!
