I'm currently working on another Little House Needleworks design, "Winter Sampler." It's a UFO of mine, put away a year ago, and not knowing why, I soon found out. All you see in the link has had to be frogged and done over. Yes, I was heavily drugged when I started this one, so I have had to forgive myself for stitching what I did with one stitch off. I also stitched it with the Belle Soie Crescent Colours overdyed silks with one strand, and I saw it in my LNS with two strands and liked it better, so I'm using two strands now.
I'm thinking of using a rotation and have been asking a small Yahoo Group for their suggestions on how to rotate five projects---2 UFO's, an ornament a month, and two new projects. I'm up for suggestions. Two suggested a project each day, a couple of others suggested I'd get more progress done on a project for a week, then onto the 2nd, etc. Any ideas of yours? Please? If you have your own rotaion that works for you, would you kindly email me with ideas?

Oh, Nancy! I love, love, love this! I *must* get this pattern and that set from Impie, Hattie. I'm so glad you persevered and finished them!!
Rotations are hard, aren't they? I think I'd do the ornament first each month, cuz it's a timed commitment, then, what if you picked a certain day or two each week to set aside to work on a UFO, and work on your two new ones in between times. Just a thought! I'm sure someone will have just the advice that will "click"!!
I absolutely LOVE your Winter Wonderland finish Nancy. So cute!
Very nice, like the fancy pins you are keeping in it. Hope all goes well with the UFO.
That is adorable!! Congrats on the finish.
Gorgeous! You did a great job.

Beautiful Nancy. What a great way to finish this. Don't bother about the season, just look and appreciate all your beautiful stitching. :D Cathryn
Love this piece, I have the sister to it "Snowflakes" as a flatfold. It's a cute way to finish it too. I don't do a rotation. I just have several things going and switch them out when I need to or to whatever calls loudest to me at the time.
Oh it's so beautifull
Those are adorable!
Very cute finish! Great job sticking with it and getting it done :)
I don't do very well with rotations, so I'm afraid I wouldn't be any help with that!
I love it! Great job!
Nancy.....I just love the Winter Wonderland finish! Great Job!
I am glad you stayed with it Nancy because it is beautful for me to look at. LOL.
Great finish Nancy!! I know you are just looking and smiling as I am.
Gorgeous finish!
Congratulations on your gorgeous finishes!
I'm not very good at rotations I'm afraid. I always have the best of intentions but when I get to something I don't feel like stitching on I end up not enjoying my stitching or not stitching at all, so for now I'm just going with what calls.
That design is awesome Nancy. I thought I would post here, then you could find your way to my blog. I havent posted in ages. Must get back to it at some time soon :)
