Check-in day for Theme-a-licious is the 15th, but I'm posting this a little early so participants 'round the globe (omigosh, how cool is it that we're themeing 'round the globe??) can check in while it's still the 15th for them!
A quick graphic note...for those of you that put the original graphic on your blog sidebars (which I do appreciate!) remember that there's now a much prettier version available! (i.e., made by a real graphic designer instead of me ;) To change from this:
to this:
just change the last part of the "src" in your "img" tag to "themeButton.gif" (note capital "B") instead of "themeblink.png". Unless, of course, you just like my unprofessional one better. ;)
Now on to the update! So far I've been able to work on two of the four pieces I wanted to work on for Jardin January. First up: Shakespeare's Garden.
Awaiting a response on the Flower Thread, I moved on to Convents Herbal Garden. I worked on the upper right corner.
My third planned piece for this month is Sanctuary by Drawn Thread. And the fourth is a knitting project I won't start 'til I'm done with a certain sweater. But you guys also really loved Les Rubans. And it, you know...kinda has flowers on it. =)
So what do you say? What should I work on for the rest of the month?
How has your Jardin January been shaping up? Please add your link below (to your check-in post). And despite what Mister Linky says, you don't need to comment after linking, though of course I'll always appreciate it. =) Our next check-in post will be on the 31st, when we'll sum up Jardin January and make plans for Fangirl February!

Posted my link. Love your progress so far. Isn't it great to stitch greenery and flowers when it's so bleak outside?

hugs cucki xx
Ooo, your gardens are very pretty, Heather! I hope you can find some of the thread you need to continue!
Beautiful designs and you have made great progress.
Wonderful Chatelaine.. it has made me want to stitch mine.

Such beautiful projects!! Congrats on your progress.
Beautiful stitching. I am still working my way through my knit WIPs so I'm not joining, but I am enjoying your Capt. Mal graphic!!!
Your stitching is looking lovely, and much more of a garden than what I worked on the first part of the month! Hopefully I got the linky to work, it was giving me some trouble and not showing up. Knowing my luck, I probably posted my link 3 times.
Thanks for doing this, its going to be a lot of fun!
I've just started wondering what to do for fangirl February... I'm going to have to pick from my WIPS this time - surely one of those ought to be from my favourite designer (who??? I'm terrible at settling on a favourite.)
Your WIPS look gorgeous, Heather. Still loving that Chatelaine!
I love both your progresses. I've posted my link, hope you'll like it.
They're looking lovely, great progress
The stitching on both pieces is delightful. I've posted and let Mr Linky know.
Great progress pics.
After seeing all those awesome progress pics of everyone who is doing the Theme-a-licious, I finally made up my mind. If it's not too late, I'm joining in! That new button is way too cute not to have. I kinda missed that first check in, but I'll do something till the end of the month.
I'm a bit late... but hadn't decided what I was working on for the theme yet this month. I now have- Floral Bellpull is on the scroll bars!
Loving both pieces so far... sad that I couldn't find the flower thread for you (although I definitely could do the danish flower thread if we can find an appropriate conversion color).
I'm partial to the Chatelaine for you to keep working on... but I know they tend to be ones that need to be done in slightly slow doses at times!
I love, love, LOVE these 2 pieces! Beautiful work!
Oops, I forgot to check in this month! I'll do that this evening when I get home.
Your stitching is beautiful. I really love Les Rubans. It is just lovely to look at all your flowery projects in winter.
