Challenge Met!

I didn't think I was going to make it, but I managed to get my 400 stitches stitched in one weekend! It wasn't necessary, however, I wanted to push myself a bit. I think I will extend this challenge a bit and attempt a minimum of 400 stitches every week until November 30. I really do want to see how far I can get before I have to put her away for my Christmas start this year. DH picked that one out and it's a doozy! 

Well, at any rate, here are my 400 stitches:



Design: QS Evil Queen 

Designer: Michelle Sayetta of Heaven and Earth Designs. Based on the original artwork of Annya Kai

Fabric: 22 count Antique White aida by Wichelt

Fibers: DMC as called for in the chart

Stitcher's Notes: Began Saturday, January 24, 2015. The Quick Stitch for this design is no longer available for purchase at this time. The chart was originally called Maleficent, however, this was changed at some point. 


As of Friday, October 30, 2015:



As of Monday, November 2, 2015:



I had best be off. Time for chores. I hope everyone had a wonderful Halloween! :)

Great progress! You'll get really far really fast if you can keep up that pace.
Looking forward to seeing what your Christmas start will be...

That was quite fast, will you also continue to work on it during the week?
