Turtle Trot SAL


Look at me, trying to bite off more than I can chew. I really want to cross stitch more this year, so I think that joining a stitch along will be good motivation. I decided to join BAP Attack's Turtle Trot. So, without further ado, here are the pieces I am going to get a move on this year.

 
Colour Pop Sampler from Cross Stitcher Magazine

 
Mariner's Light

 
Sleeping Angel by Just Nan

 
Peacock Majesty by Just Nan

 
Tall Flowers by Just Nan

 
Birch Tree Birds

 
Peace on Earth

 
Tiger Chilling; the black-on-black stitching is hard to see in the photo

 
Poppy Pair, which I am almost done with

 
The Kiss of the Sun

 
This Legend of Korra Pattern I designed

 
Merry Christmas Sampler from Cross Stitcher Magazine
 
There is one more piece I am planning on doing. I am designing a pattern to make into either a wall hanging or a pillow for my friend. The pattern will feature characters from the hit anime, Attack on Titan. However, I only recently learned about the exact characters and order she wanted everything in, so the pattern is not designed yet. This work is a lot to do, and I know I will never finish it all by the end of the year, but I hope that this stitch along will help me get a lot more starts and finishes than last year.
 
Lots of love and good luck to everyone participating in this SAL!
