WIPocalypse 2014

This year, I am joining in with WIPocalypse 2014- finishing my cross-stitch Works In Progress.
This is going to be a great motivator, as I have so many cross stitches that are half finished.

As part of this project, I am sharing the list of WIPs that I would like to complete this year.

• Noah's Ark Birth Record- this is for Lucas, who I am ashamed to say has just turned four!
• Happi Transport Birth Record- this one is Adam's.
• Felt gingerbread houses- two of these for next Christmas!

• Vintage Framecraft Four Little Girls miniatures.
• Paula Vaughan- Grandmother's House.

• Sampler- I started this sampler when I was 11 and hope to finally finish it.


The schedule for WIPocalypse is really appealing, as I don't like to feel under a  huge amount of pressure but I do need a gentle reminder now and then.
