Rotation Report

In an effort to meet my gift deadline, I have doubled up on the Jacobean Elegance afghan and eliminated the class pieces from my rotation for the time being.  I am still including the smalls and the Quaker themed pieces in the rotation for variety.

Monday and Tuesday: BAP

Jacobean Elegance Afghan.   Four and a half blocks of 20 completed.  But I'll be stitching on this both Monday and Tuesday, so I hope to increase that count by another block before Wednesday.

Wednesday: Smalls
Sean's Name Tree ornament from M Designs.  I have finished the first "E" and started on the second.

Sandi's Sweet Shop in The Town Square series.

Thursday: Theme

Workbasket's Quaker Bat.   As with the Quaker Owl, I have two complete skeins and one partial skein in different dye lots of  the fiber I'll be using.  This time the color is Old Crow, a deep blue black.  I'm working on the wings first using the darkest of the dye lots.
Workbasket's  Quaker Squirrel.  

Friday: Sewing Finishes.  
Town Square ornament series: 

The Pet Store, 

The Quilt Shop  

The Silversmith

and a By the Bay Acorns: these are supposed to be acorns but I am thinking they look more like stylized flower buds than acorns.  I found this free By th Bay chart in a e-newsletter.  Aside from the fact that it does not appear to be what it purports to be, I think it's rather pretty.  I'll use it on the spring and summer tree.

Saturday & Sunday: get out of the stitching chair and do a wide variety of things: walk, exercise, antique, reorganize, put the garden to bed for the winter, feed and observe the backyard birds, read, visit friends and relatives, try a new restaurant, experiment with the recipes I have been downloading, host a high tea ... whatever.
Weekend Stitching: Stitcher's Choice: The Jacobean Afghan, see photo above,
Monthly Stitching: March entry from the Prairie Schooler Year Round leaflet [done], a name tree ornament and one more Town Square ornament.  These will be my smalls for all the Tuesdays this month.  In the unlikely event I finish all three before month's end, I'll pull my Fertile Circles Needle Book from the UFO basket.
