I hope everyone had a great time over Christmas and is ready for 2024.
I’m pretty sure I have already bitten off more than I can chew but that is usual for me. I fantasise about all the things I want to do without having any thought of it being realistic. Dream Big or Go Home…. Isn’t that the saying? 😂😂
So read on if you want to see what I wish to be working on this month 🧞🧞♀️🧞♂️
Each month I am hoping to work on 3-4 WIPs. WIPgo and I Dare You SAL will determine what I will work on each month and if by a miracle, I have enough time to fit in another WIP I have created the Wheel of Full Coverage WIPS to decide on the 4th project.

The numbers called for January are:
9 - Gangster Marilyn
22 - Kelly Eden
I Dare You SAL
Sarah called the order for the SAL and the first WIP is:
2 - Quilted Heels
Wheel of Full Coverage
I have spun the Wheel and I hope to put 500 stitches into:
Zebracorn
Ok so that’s 4 WIPs for January 2024.
I’ve decided on the events that will help me this month:
Myth and Magic Round 3 starts on 01/01/2024 I’m stitching as a Werewolf in the Werewolf Clan and I'm hoping to get some stitchy time in every day. My baby is getting to the point where he is enjoying some play time on the mat or he can be bewitched by the television for a short period of time so I'm hoping I can fit in some stitching at this time. So I need to set up my stitchy spot to be able to just stitch as and when I can. I'm totally going to use Gangster Marily for this one as it is the least confetti heavy wip for this month.
Semi Sane Stitchers have a monthly event called This or That and it’s based on a colour or shape. It’s a non counting event which is easy. This month is White or Circles so thinking Kelly Eden will be good for this as the butterflies has little white circles on their wings 😁😁.
The group also has a 24 in’24 challenge where I have chosen to stitch 24 hours per month and the hours can be divided between all the WIPs 🤞🏻🍀 wish me luck 🍀 🤞🏻
Wip Warriors has a month event called Scattergories and I’m so excited to start linking the WIPs too the categories I think this is my favourite thing; finding WIPs to fit challenges. Once the Letter has been announced I can begin finding links beginning with the Letter and then stitching them. This is a non counting event so I can just aim for progress with the time I have available and still "win" the event (it's not a competition but if I stitch WIPs for each category then I WIN!"
They are also doing the Great Aussie Road Trip which I’m hoping to do, although at this point I’m wondering if I’ll be able to keep up with everyone, but we will see how I get on 🤞🤞🤞
Magical Stitches yearly challenge has been officially revealed but the rules has changed a little and each round increment of 500 stitches so Level 1- Identify the creature is 500 stitches, Level 2 - Study the Creature is 1000 stitches, Level 3 - Feed the Creature is 1500 stitches and finally Level 4 - Befriend the creature is 2000 stitches. This feels impossible for me but I'm still going to attempt it. Just need to figure out the best way to tackle it, either way I'm going to start with500 stitches to Identify an Alux. Now I just need to google what it is because I've NO IDEA 😂
New start
I’m in two minds if I am to have a new start or not. Normally it is my tradition to have a new start every year on my birthday. If I do it’s a choice between:
