Gifted Gorgeousness SAL - September

I just noticed that it's the 15th and time for another GGSAL update (it's nearly 9PM here) :D The SAL is hosted by Jo and you can take a look at her and everyones progress here

I only have two projects to show this month.

First up is my Map of Middle Earth (I'm sure you'll be tired of it by the end of this year... but I don't think I will have an update next month, I need a break from it), I finished the Haed Challenge, yay!
Here is my progress as of last month:

And now, page 4 is done and we have a total of 31 100 stitches:

It's great to see the writing appear, it's a bit more interesting than all the background :D But I want to work on something else now ;-)

I also did some work on my Dog Bookshelf piece. I want to finish this soon, so I decided that I will stitch one row of blocks per week (520 stitches), at least that's my plan, I only started last week :D

Anyway, last month it looked like this:

And now, as you can see I am not done with this weeks row (just started tonight, I guess I'll finish it tomorrow):

When this row is done, I will have a total of 80 rows (so work for 8 weeks) to go, the end is in sight =)

Thanks for all the lovely comments concerning my new wolf chart, by now I am pretty sure that it will be a 2017 start. I have lot's of plans for 2017, oh my! Another reason to finish the dog bookshelf piece. There is no chance that I can finish my stocking this year, but I will try and get as much progress in as possible to have a good start for 2017. So there will be an update on the stocking next month and I also plan to get my Wolf Kiss on the frame for October =)

Happy stitching!
