Starry Night Stitch-a-Long, part 3

Hey there stitchy friends! 

I'm writing this ahead of time because I'll be in a cozy, if spartan cabin on the 28th celebrating my husband's birthday. 

Last time I had completed one skinny column on Starry Night:  


This time I completed the "full" (10 wide) column next to the skinny column: 


(Yep, thread management still chaotic,,, but hopefully a little tidier!)

Again, it's so nice to dive right in to that swirly moon in the top right of the painting. 


I'm feeling excited about working on this project, but trying to be mellow and just do one column per check-in. That leaves me time to work on other, smaller projects, gifts, etc. So when we check in again in three weeks I will have the next column complete, and no more. 

Until then, join me and check out what my fellow stitchers -- Avis, Claire, KathyMargaret, Megan, Deborah, Sharon, Daisy, Cathie, LindaMary Margaret, Cindy, Helen -- have been up to. We all do very different projects but it's always inspiring.

    1. Thank you Megan! We saw a herd of elk relaxing in the park. They know they are safe there so just wander around and rest.

  3. happy belated birthday wishes to your husband! And good idea to limit yourself to a column per update, thus giving yourself time to enjoy other projects along the way.

    1. Thanks Claire! Yes, with a big project like this, I think I would feel overwhelmed. So little slices makes it manageable and I am still stitching little projects along the way.
