WIP - Meaning of Cross Stitch Term WIP

By Connie G. Barwick, About.com

Definition: Cross Stitchers use the term WIP to refer to projects on which they are working. WIP is short for "works in progress." Some stitchers only have one WIP at a time; others work on several projects at once in rotation. If a WIP project is neglected for too long, it may end up as an UFO.
