2023 – Cross Stitching Finishes & Fully Finishes | Justquiltin with Denise Russart

20230101_5

A new page for a new year! This is where you’ll find photos of my finished stitching projects and below those and my fully finished projects. These are all “finished” in 2023 but may not necessarily have been started in 2023 because… well… WIPs.

If I happen across any great tools, finishing items, fabric dyers I love, I will post info on that here. If you are interested in that kind of stuff, check my 2022 cross stitch page (found in the lower right sidebar on the blog) for great stuff I found prior to 2023.

My 2023 stitching projects (planned projects and I will add to this list as other stitches are started) are: (Updated – Green highlights mean goal reached for 2023 or project finished)
