Recap - January, 2023

January is typically my best stitching month of the year and this January is no exception.  I worked on and finished ten projects this month.  Since I've joined a group where you stitch exclusively on WIPs in odd numbered months and exclusively on new starts in even numbered months, all of my projects this month were WIPs.

I also stitched everyday except January 1st since we were on our way home from my Father-in-law's memorial service that day.

You did indeed have a great January and congrats on everything!
I like the idea of alternating between WIPs and New Starts each month; what a great way of making the best of both worlds!

What a great month! Your blog is one that I can only comment on using my laptop but I do read every post.
