I have my first finish of 2012, Little House Needleworks' Winter Band Sampler. I really enjoyed stitching this. I stitched it on 14ct Beige Marble Aida and the recommended DMC threads.
My new start was started on New Year's Day. A little tradition I seem to have. I just can't help myself. It is a design by http://pauchok.okis.ru/. It is a free design. There is a lot of white on white at the moment.
This is my progress as of Friday. About three quarter of the first page of nine.
Until next time, happy stitching
