Way to go Jill! I can't wait to see your pictures.
I agree with Denise. Don't stress Marie. You have definitely had a lot going on this year.
Jana, you didn't fail! You still tried and that's not failing! Plus you still have 2 more months. Otherwise you can join me again in signing up for next year. I didn't even put a dent in my UFO list but I have high expectations for next year!

Wow, you all have been busy! After storm damage to our home a couple weeks ago, everything has been on hold. I know all of you can relate!! Cannot wait for the new carpet to be installed so the house can be put back together again. Half our household belongings are all in the other half of our house. Sofa and large recliner in the kitchen with the dining table & chairs. It's a fun time!! LOL!! Keep up the great work everyone, I'll join back in as soon as possible.

Sorry to hear about your storm damage, Joanna. That's very frustrating. I hope you can get everything back to normal soon.

Wow Michele!! That is absolutely beautiful! You have a very lucky granddaughter. What a great feeling it must be to have completed the last stocking. Where did you get the pattern? I have one grandbaby right now, and maybe I should do something similar for next Christmas.

I am feeling very guilty about not keeping this thread maintained. I will be working on this in the next few days and I may need responses to emails I send to clarify numbers of projects finished. I will endeavor to get the numbers correct as we all see them.
I am so sorry to have neglected this.

Michele, that stocking is beautiful! Your granddaughter is going to love it and cherish it forever! My grandma made me one when I was very little and I still use it every year for Christmas! It means so much to me.
Marie, don't feel guilty. Life gets crazy sometimes. You have done awesome!

thanks everyone. the stocking was a dimensions cross stitch kit. i made one for my daughter in law, and one for each of my four grandkids. my son had a stocking made by my grandma. I hope they take care of them so they have them all their lives. I think someone else on this topic was just starting a stocking pattern Good luck working on it.

Marie, You have been busy crunching the numbers!! I'm happy with the UFO's I completed this year, not nearly as many as I would have liked, but even one less UFO or making a dent in a daunting UFO, is progress!!!! Everyone has been inspiring and encouraging. I am ready to begin again in 2018!!!!
