On the stitching front... first some ornaments for our Friendly Stitcher Ornament Exchange...
From Elizabeth to me... Isn't it beautiful?? It's my first biscornu and the fabric shimmers!
Then from me to Elizabeth - an older L*K pattern...
Here's my finished PS Autumn Leaves Foursome - Jackie, if you read this I need your address to send it back! : ) ...
And finally, my progress on LHN Counting House...
As for my personal 2012 challenge, I worked on it over Thanksgiving and here it is. I have it under the challenge tab up top, so I can keep track of how I do and remind myself of my "rules". : )
2012 Tricia's Personal Challenge!
Rules...
1. My main goal is to finish Cabin Fever by the beginning of December 2012. I have about 100 stitches done.

3. I will work on Heart and Soul as my UFO project on Thursdays for Friendly Stitchers. It is my oldest project except for Cabin Fever and I know I won't finish it if I don't make myself. When it is finished I will work on Quilted Garden for UFO Thursdays.
4. When I have three finishes I can kit up the next two that are missing threads and fabric.

Tricia ... You certainly have your work cut out for you! What a wonderful biscornu you received! I don't have one but bought a couple patterns to try. It will have to be after the holidays though. I love that older L*K chart ... can you tell me the name of it so I can see if I can possibly find one somewhere? Blessings, Shirlee
Your exchanges are very lovely.You have quite a bit to do next year. I am hoping to do 6 Fat Men too, if Santa is good to me
Hi Tricia,
I like your plan. It may just inspire me to sit down and really think about how I spend my time in 2012 too. A little focus is a good thing!
With hugs!
Tricia, great finishes. Love the ornaments. Your plan for 2012 is wonderful. I see a lot of designs I would love to do, too! Good Luck! :) Cathryn
Your biscornu is just lovely!
And I am admiring your 2012 plan. Not too little, not too much, and incorporating your oldest WIP-great idea!
Nice exchange pieces and I do like the PS Autumn. Good luck with the stitching!

Love all the pieces. Great plan for 2012.
I have to make my list for 2012 yet. I have completed 50(mostly small pieces)items in 2011 so far.
What a nice exchange, Tricia--both yours and Elizabeth's finishes are delightful. And, of course, I love your PS piece :)
Good luck with your 2012 challenge--sounds practical and fun :)
You may surprise yourself how much you get done. Somehow lists inspire me! I never thought I would finish 15 this year and looking back it was over 20!! I'm in the challenge too, I'll cheer for you! *Hugs*
Great exchange! Good luck for your next challenge.

Your exchange pieces are wonderful Tricia. I love seeing your plan for 2012, wish I could be as disciplined as that. I will look forward to following your progress.
