The oldest UFO

I managed to stitch my Sailboats and Seagulls today. After frogging and sorting floss for many days I really enjoyed stitching it again. I am much better stitcher now than I was 18 years ago, I see the difference while working on this piece.


If I will have as much enthusiasms for this piece as I had today, I'll finish it in January for Freddy's birthday (January 27th) as originally was to be, 18 years ago...

Do you have an old UFO? Join me and let's them finish! 

So long my friends, this is my last post for 2011. Now it's party time!!!

the oldest UFO

My oldest UFO (see post below) got some attention! Debbie of Debbie's Cross-Stitch admitted that she has a 30 year old UFO!!! So, that got me thinking... Let's do the Oldest UFO SAL. If you have any, dig it out and start stitching. Post the progress on your own blog with the label "the oldest UFO" and let me know that you did it. You can post the progress of your work (on that UFO of course) as often as you like but you must post it also on the last day of every month. That one will count towards a prize! Yep, you are reading right, there will be a prize for the most stitched UFO!!! It would be not fair to say for most finishes because some UFO's will need maybe 100 stitches to finish and some could have 1000s! The first prize I will draw on January 1, 2012 and it will be a $25 Visa card.

As I mentioned earlier, I will stitch Sailboats and Seagulls. When done it should look like that (sorry for the picture being so wrinkled... it took 18 years to get that look):
