21

Who's gearing up for 24 Hours of Cross Stitch this weekend?

For once I've actually remembered its happening, so to celebrate maybe I'll actually take part! Not sure I can really manage 24 whole hours but maybe if I make it a long weekend and fudge the numbers slightly 😅

Only problem is I'm supposed to be #sewing this weekend as well...hmm this is gonna be a busy few days!

Who else is in?

This is normally me when 24hocs rolls around, but this weekend we have no plans for once! We're in quarantine before a big holiday that may or may not end up actually happening due to airport strikes, bleh.

Normally I set my own challenge, like last time was during prep for my wedding so I knew there was no chance of taking part, instead I took a starting pic and tracked my time on the project over the next month until it hit 24 hours then took my finish pic.

if you're doing 3 hours a day that's already 21 in a week, you could easily do something similar! Not that there's much point, but it was quite satisfying looking at how far I'd got in the time :D
