2012 BAP Challenge

What is the BAP Challenge?

BeckySC is hosting a BAP (Big A$$ Project) Challenge for 2012.  On this page I will try to post my progress pics for the year.


The Challenge Details:

The challenge is to start and finish at least one large sampler by the end of 2012. It must not have been started before January 1, 2012 and must be done by December 31, 2012. It also must be at least 10 x 12" or have a minimum stitch count of 175 x 200. The size can differ if you stitch it over one just so long as the stitch count meets the requirements.

Those that complete their sampler will be entered into a drawing for a $100 gift certificate from an online shop of Becky's choosing. She also asks that those participating send her updates whether by a blog link or an emailed picture.

The Project:

The project I chose to work on is by Ellen Maurer-Stroh and it's a freebie SAL she's hosting here!  I'm using 40 ct. Newcastle Cream with the called for DMC threads.

This is the overall design:
