My first Crazy Challenge piece is The Great Pumpkin Conspiracy designed by Cross Eyed Cricket. I picked a bigger piece for the first day because I planned on getting lots of it done. Unfortunately it didn't work out as planned, so I only got a little done. But the important thing is that it's begun.
Day 2 I was at an agility trial so I took a small, portable and easy pattern from Angel Stitchin' (Just Cross Stitch magazine's 2009 Christmas edition). Between walking courses, running dogs, yakking with people, eating, pottying dogs, I managed to get more done than anticipated.
See you tomorrow for day 3's stitching.
Hi Marcy, I think you're off to a great start! I'm always amazed at how long it takes to make all those little x's!!! Fall is my favorite season and I'm really liking "The Great Pumpkin Conspiracy." I really have to stop looking at everyone's blogs 'cause now I want that one, too! :O)
