2012 WIPocalypse

I’m participating in the 2012 WIPocalpse SAL organized by Measi over at Measi’s Musings. The goal is to use the SAL to make progress on your WIPs and UFO’s. There are no restrictions that you must finish any certain number or that you can’t have any other new starts during the year or things like that. It’s just about making some progress on them. I love this concept!

Part of the SAL is to post a list of the WIPs you want to work on during the WIPocalypse. I sorted through all of my WIPs (*gulp*) and then decided which pieces I want to focus on as part of the WIPocalypse SAL. With that, below is my plan along with links to an initial progress photo as of the start of this challenge. I’ll also include a link to the latest progress photo of each piece as I work on them.

Finish at least 12 pieces in 2012

~~My Mirabilia RR piece~~ (completed 13-Mar-12) (finish photo)
~~My square on Tracy’s Mira RR~~ (completed 21-Mar-12) (finish photo)
~~A Stitcher’s Box~~ – Margaret Bendig (completed 12-Mar-12) (finish photo)
~~Lady Alexandra~~ – Mirabilia (completed 31-Mar-12)
~~Petite Christmas Angel~~ – Joan Elliott (completed 2-Apr-12) (finish photo)
~~Tracy’s square on her Mira RR~~ (completed 26-Apr-12) (finish photo)

As time allows, work the additional pieces below (in no particular order but listed by start date). I don’t have initial current progress pics of most of these pieces. I’ll link the ones that are available and I’ll post the others if and when the time comes that I work on the piece.

Taj Mahal Garden Mandala – Chatelaine (started 1-Jan-07)
Le Quaker a 6 Mains – Broder Ensemble/Le 498/AMAP (started 5-Jan-07)
Moonlit Garden – Blackbird Designs (started 19-Jan-07)

Plum Blossom Kimono (canvas) – Margaret Bendig (started 20-Jun-09) (current progress)
The Southwest – Little House Needleworks (started 10-Oct-09)
Book of Spells – The Good Huswife (started 13-Feb-10)
Needle (Dictionary Series) – CherryWood Design Studios (started 01-Jan-11)
Snowed In (6 Fat Men series) – Lizzie Kate (started 22-Dec-11)

This final section is for any new pieces I start during 2012. While they aren’t part of the initial WIPocalypse listing, they must be included as I start them. I’ll try to remember to keep them updated with current progress photos as the year progresses. If I finish any of them, they’ll be moved up to the finished list above.

Royal Holiday – Mirabilia (started 1-Jan-12)
Cirque des Cercles – Ink Circles (started 16-Mar-12)
