January WIPocalypse

So one month in of the new year and all of winter has decided to happen in this month, that should mean the spring starts in February? On the other hand, cold and snow does keep me inside to stitch so that's something. 
The question of the month is What SALs are you participating in this year?
Other than this one I plan on doing the Lesley Teare Birds and Blackwork Flowers SAL which I shall be starting as soon as I finish this blog, 
I finish January with a Finish - as just today I completed this baby name thingy that I adapted from a larger pattern by Smart Cross Stitch on Etsy, starting the year with a dragon is the best thing

The piece is just under 8X10" which makes it the biggest baby thingy I've done, I have tried to keep them all close to the same size but failed on this one because DRAGON
But this does mean it's time to start The Lion King and I can't wait

As for what I watched
Critical Role: and Talks Machina 

Quests and Chaos - I was looking for a play through of Pandemic Legacy and came across these streamers I enjoyed them so much I’m now watching them play Betrayal Legace

Jumanji: The Next Level - I was never a huge fan of the Robin Williams original, but boy are the Dwayne Johnson/Karen Gillian ones fun.

Clueless - Finally got this on DVD, it is  teen romantic comedy done right, incredibly outdated in fashion and slang, but that doesn’t matter because it is timeless

Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker - Everything you’d expect from Star Wars, and a thoroughly enjoyable night out, also the cameo by Wedge made me inordinately happy

New Year, New WIPocalypse

I love this SAL , if it wasn't for WIPocalypse I'd never remember to blog at all, which when I think of it, this blog is my WIP far more than my stitching is.

So the first question of the year is :

Introduce yourself, your projects, and any goals you have for the year!

Hi, I'm Nancy, I'm that weird beast known as a one-at-a-time stitcher, well two at a time really, but I have no UFO's.  I very rarely set something aside to work on something else, it's only happened when I need a gift or something for the fair.  So I live in a two story house and have a small project upstairs that I work on during Jeopardy and curling and any movies that I watch with my parents.  Downstairs is where the BAP lives, cause that's where I watch movies and Netflix and most importantly Critical Role.
I have actually started this year having just finshed my last BAP and a bunch of ornaments, but I have plans.  I am currently stitching a baby name thing,  and it's my focus at the moment, and after it's done, I have no baby things needed, as far as I know no one is pregnant and the one I'm working on now will by less than a year after the birth, so that's not bad for me.

As for the plans for the rest of the year, the BAP is going to be Lion King, I'm just waiting for some fabric, it was a kit and came with some, but I really prefer working on evenweave.

I also have some small kits that have been hanging around for a few years, mainly gifts so they will be my smalls for the year.  I have just barely started this one from Dimensions , as I needed something bright to work on during a powerless New Years Day.

I also have one other SAL planned, more about that next blog.

In non stitching related things, Happy New Year hope yours was less "interesting" then mine,  A snow storm dumped 18"/45cm on us on new year's eve, taking the power out at 11 am on the 31st.  It didn't come back on till 2am on the 2nd. Not exactly the normal start to the year.
But plans for this year mainly work,sleep and stitch same as usual, except for July when I'm going to go to Denver to visit one of my best friends and go to Denver Pop Culture Con with her, and then she will show me around and probably find me a waterfall.
As for what I watched

Teen Wolf Season 5

Cats - I know it’s supposed to be horrible, but I love the music and thoroughly enjoyed the movie

The Addam’s Family Values - For a sequel it’s not bad at all, Not one I would have bought on it’s own, but it came as a two pack so I might as well watch it.
