2024 Stitchalong

This is great! I also just read it as really emphasising the squeeeze lol. Definitely the right word to add an extra letter to.

Thank you all! I keep telling myself it’s just extra emphasis!

Somehow I missed this!!!

I’ve been stitching a lot recently, not for the stitchalong, but I am finishing up a UFO sampler that I’ve been working on on and off for the last couple of years. Plus I stitched Homer Simpson earlier this month :laughing: I also found another sampler that I started about 15 years ago, that I really want to finish.

Buuut there’s two more weeks of February so I might still start something that relates to chaos, tiny or broken!

A tiny project for February! I came across a seller on Etsy with mini patterns of Van Gogh paintings. This one is based on Roses. I love the little beetle, but the backstitching for its legs isn’t as neat as I’d like. I stitched this on 16 ct aida inside a 5 inch hoop. I can’t wait to make more and have a little Van Gogh gallery!

I love your lemony stitching, @Jennalou ! I also thought it was on purpose, like how I love to squeeeze baby cheeeks!

Just a question about the Stitch Bingo, does that apply to everything we stitch or just for what we stitch for the Stitchalong?

By “for the stitchalong” you mean following the theme? Stitch bingo can be separate from the theme. But please link/post here so I know about it and that you want it to count for stitch bingo! Make sense?

Yes that’s what I meant!

I’ll post better pics tomorrow but I just finished this Tiny bunny (less than 20 stitches high) designed by Cheryl McKinnon aka Tiny Modernist.

For the stitch bingo, that’s flowers, cross stitch, backstitch and non-hoop stitch!

I stitched something which fills in a few stitch bingo squares! And also, if I squint the right way, I could claim it fits the chaos prompt lol.

It’s for a swap, I’ll have to do a blurry pic …

I stitched this for the Make A Bag And Fill It Swap. It was a lot of fun to make! Since it’s my own rather random stitching, I’ll say it comes (very loosely) under the ‘chaos’ prompt.

Endymion, don’t look unless you want spoilers!!

That’s very pretty chaos!! Your stitching really complements the project.

Since I actually managed to finish a stitch project this month, I got hooked on doing some stitch bingo too! :smile_cat: I crossed off a few squares with the Secret Swap Project, and then I couldn’t resist trying to complete a line or two with this little motif, which I’ll probably make into a little pouch or something like that. The fabric looks grey in this photo, but it’s actually a soft sage green.

Pink marker for the swap project, blue marker for this one - I got two lines!

Thanks for coming up with the bingo idea, it’s a fun motivator to Just Stitch Something (without all the overthinking) :sparkling_heart:
