WIPocalypse is hosted by Measi's Musings |
WIPocalypse is run by Melissa over at Measi's Musings and is now in it's 6th year (amazing!). The object of the WIPocalypse is to stitch on projects that you want to complete before the end of the world!
At the beginning of January I picked out 17 WIPocalypse projects to work on in 2017. The full list of my 17 projects can be found on my WIPocalypse 2017 page.

Halloween Happiness (Sandra Cozzolino)
Fabric: 32ct Belfast "Arabian Nights" - Stitches and Spice
Threads: as charted
Last time you saw "Comet" was back in October 2016 and he was looking a bit sad then...
and now he still looks sad but there is some progress! The ribbon is all done now as well as the white spots on his body. I have started adding the Caron Waterlilies to the tree and then it's onto the border and scattered snow (or should I say beads!)

This month's question is:
Which floss (or color of floss) do you absolutely adore and want to stash constantly?
Goodness me how hard is that to answer....
I love the variegated threads from Jodyri Designs and have slowly been building up a collection of them. I also love silks.... and have recently purchased a grab bag from Silks 4 U which I am looking forward to trying out. I have some NPI silks that I bought for my Chatelaines and they are beautiful to stitch with but so expensive to buy! Some of the other over-dyed threads are gorgeous as well but my collection of those so far is meagre and needs to be increased dramatically!
My favourite DMC colour is hard to pick... I love the hot pinks and bright purples but then I see the gorgeous soft pinks and greens that I am stitching Queen of Peace with and I love them.... I absolutely adore seeing orange and purple together which is probably why I am drawn to Halloween designs so much 😋
So that's it for this update! The next check in is on Sunday 29th October 2017. If you want to see what everyone else has posted for September drop into Measi's blog and check out the September link up page.
