I really fancied using up all this yarn I have from various projects and saw these mitred squares on Ravelry. I thought I 'd just knit a few now and then, but they are very addictive so before I knew it I had knitted 16!
But I am definitely going to stitch this, it is my favourite cross stitch.
But I love this too, which was a present from Ingrid
And of course my lovely Fairies at the Bottom of our Garden, the chart was gifted me from Cath who searched through all her magazines to find it for me.
I haven't tried to cross stitch for a week or two, but I am going to have a jolly good go! A broken arm is NOT going to stop me! I think I will also go through my charts and find something else I'd like to stitch, it's always nice to have several projects on the go!!
Happy New Year all and hope you have something waiting for you with those little xxx's I feel quite excited and can't wait to get started.. 2016 here I come!

You have very nice projects on the go here Chris. I am still struggling with the neck pain 24/7. Will see a specialist next week. Thank you for your prayers.
Love the colours on your squares. I'm at a loss on what to stitch next, oh well I have a couple of weeks before I finish my cushion.
Beautiful knitting squares and your stitching projects are looking so lovely too
Big hugs x
Great plans for 2016! :)
Lovely to read your enthusiasm for the year, happy stitching and knitting.
You are going to be busy with all those projects. Hope your arm is going to be up to it. Take care.
Lots of great plans for 2016! I hope that you enjoy them all! xx
Well for me 2016 is all about making as many Sunshine crochet lap blankets as I can which I am going to donate to a local residential care home. I love making them and want to try lots of different designs and this is a good way of doing that and using some of my massive wool stash. I would like to get back into cross stitch as well, I used to stitch all the time but only managed one small ornament last year. Again I have so much stitching stash that I really should use some of it. xx
Those mitred squares look like they could be addictive. :) Nice stitching choices too! I'm hoping you are able to do a little stitching ~ with your positive attitude I'm quite sure you will be successful. :)
Lovely little squares, what will you make it into? Pretty colours :)
Marvellous stitching projects your doing... Good luck with them :)
Smiles :)
It's nice to have things to look forward to working on. You have a good selection of projects already.
Wonderful projects, cheering you on with your great plans for 2016:)
Great plans for this year Chris, I hope your arm cooperates!
