January WIPocalypse

Well here it is the first WIPocalypse of the year!

This year in addition to showing our current list of projects there are monthly topics so that we can get to know all the other stitchers out there that we follow. So with that said this month's topic is:
Introduce yourself, your projects,
and any goals you have for the year!

My name is Faith and I live in the Chicago area (where it is VERY COLD), with my two adult children, the most handsome grandson ever, three dogs and a turtle.

I am a self-taught stitcher. I was going thru a blue period in my life and was browsing the local Michaels, picked up the materials to make a little piece and viola – an addiction was born! I love to craft and cross stitch is by far my favorite but when it comes to cross stitch I am also a CERTIFIED XS HOARDER.  I have a stash pile that is out of control.

This year I would LOVE to get a few of my UFOs finished off and to get a big section finished on Dinosaurs which I have been stitching for two years now! Of course I am always starting something NEW that I just have to do but this year I have promised myself not to buy anything that I do not REALLY need and to help me with that resolution I have joined Stitch from Stash so I can try to get a dent in my humongous stash pile!  So far, so good but…it is only the 2nd week of the New Year with 50 more weeks to go – LOL!

You can see my current list of projects that I am stitching here on my Turtle Trot WIPs page.
