Stitch Journal 2025

 This is late as I had imntended to post on the 31st to put the year to bed, so to speak. However a cold knocked me out and although I was able to complete the stitching on the 31st, making the effort to take photographs was a step too far! However, feeling much better today after three days (and several books) on the sofa.

So here is my completed Stitch Journal for the last six months.






No 'arty in the garden pictures' as it is far too cold. Although it is a bright sunny day, the sun doesn't reach our garden this time of year and there is still frost on the ground now, which is mid afternoon.

Finally, a year of stitch all packaged up for posterity!


I have made a start on my SJ for 2026 and will show my progress next week, meanwhile I will be back later today with my Chookshed Challenge list for 2026.

Happy Stitching

  1. Glad you are feeling better, my family said it had got very cold and icy, the Norfolk group showed us their lovely settling snow. Your stitch journal is gorgeous and looks good wrapped up even!

  4. You create such beautiful stitches. I'm looking forward to seeing what you come up with in 2026. I'm also curious about the 2026 CAL that you're preparing to join. Looks like a beautiful blanket. Cheers to 2026! So glad you're feeling much better.

  5. Absolutely stunning. It needs to be on display not rolled up.
