June Smalls SAL Check-In

It's that time! Heather of Stitching Lotus hosts a Smalls SAL throughout the year. I love, LOVE this SAL, as it really motivates me to stitch....like I need any motivation? HA! And what SAL <DON'T> I love to take part in??

Anyway, I digress - here are two I completed this month -

The last of Elena's ABC SAL:


I have an idea how I'm going to finish all the blocks....as I stitched them each individually....so stay tuned.

Here's a sweet little sampler....wish I could tell you who the designer is....I was given the kit, but no indication of the designer's name are on the pattern or finishing instructions. If anyone recognizes it, please let me know so I can give credit where credit is due. It's from 1999, as I had to jimmy the date for 2016. I fell in love with it the first time I saw it.


Off to my studio and to gather a new project for FNWF hosted by the lovely Cheryl. Until tomorrow....

  4. Definitely awaiting your finishing for the ABC's.

    That is an adorable little sampler. Don't recognize it though. Probably not the style I appreciated in the last century!

  14. Great work on the mini SAL. Love the speciality stitches for each number.
    I did a Google Images search for the design and nothing came up but it works better if you use the original cover picture (if you have one).

  15. Kim: The Sheep and Lady are so sweet, the ABC Stitch Along is fun to follow.
    I look forward to seeing how you finish the blocks.

    Blessings

  16. This little ABC lady is so sweet. I also love stitching old designs, they usually keep their attraction for me.
    I'm curious to see what you will do with Ele's blocks.
