I've signed up for TAST- Take a Stitch Tuesday with Sharon Boggins. I signed up a couple of years ago, but because I wasn't well, I don't feel I joined in as wholeheartedly as I would've liked, and now I have a second chance to play.
Here's what Sharon says - Each Tuesday I will post a challenge stitch for the week. You work an example of the stitch. Learn the stitch, experiment a bit, take it a bit further if you have time then photograph it, and load it to stitchin fingers or put it on your flickr site or write about it on your blog. Then you come back here, leave a comment on the post where I posed the challenge and tell everyone where they can see your sample.
If you are busy and want to swing in and out of the challenge as life dictates that is fine too. I cant make it more guilt free than that. Simply put - all who want to stitch are welcome. However, last time people that worked all the stitches said that they learnt a lot! Even stitches that did not initially appeal to them, they learnt from, discovered a way of working and sometimes were surprised to find they enjoyed them.
If you'd like to play too, go here, read about it and sign on. Go on, you know you want to, there's still time.
