Tomorrow is the deadline to update my YOW album in the Soulful Stitching Facebook group. This is the first year I've joined in. It stands for Year of WorksInProgress. You pick a list of WIPs which has to be more than 18. You must complete half of them by the end of the year to be entered into some drawings. This time we had to check in April, July, and October. She is doing some changes next year but still the same idea to finish half the list. I'm planning on picking out 20 again. Anyway let's go through my list and see what I ended up with...
1.

I knew you could do it! To have finished more than half during the year is fantastic, especially considering how many other... distractions... your needles have had! And there have been some lovely pieces in there too (still love those eyeballs!) I look forward to seeing next year's list in full and encouraging you along the path of success again. :)
That's amazing, and truly inspiring. I could never join such a challenge, myself, unfortunately. I tend to go for huge projects, so finishing more than 1 in a year is amazing, LOL.
I only had 1 finish this year, and it was a small one that I did on a whim because it spoke to me.
Amazing job!!
Yay you finished December! He is a cutie pie. You have gotten over half of your list complete! I think that is amazing and I know you are happy with that progress.
That's a nice idea. I'm on a stash diet and really want to finish my haed, only 4 pages left :p
Congratulations on finishing more than half of your list. I may have to look into this for 2019.
Goodness, that is a lot of stitching and you must feel very pleased to have met the deadline great work.
Well done on meeting your targets! I love the collection of Calendar Creatures all finished up.
Well done on finishing 12 projects from your list.
What great progress throughout the year. Well done an meeting your goal and getting over half finished! I do still think the calendar is my favourite x
Look at all the finishes! Holy cow! I'm envious of your Durene Jones series and might have to grab those patterns at some point. You have so many good things WIP or UFO in your stash I seriously want to dig through just to OOO and AAAHHH
