Many Year Sampler finished & updates

So proud of myelf because I have been able to finish so many SAL I thought I was never going to finish. I still have several more SALs to go or catch up to but happy with the progress I have made. Hoping I do not get tied done with a new SAL in 2011...I am a sucker for SALs.

FINISHED: Many Year Sampler. I began this one in 2008. I it finished. Love it.


Mary Wigham Sampler- finish part 1 of 9. I did change the color Ecru for 3042 (purple) The Ecru was blending in so much you could not see it. Thought to touch of purple was nicer.


Brooke's Books Stitchers Alphabet-complete I and J


I have completed November of OakHaven monthly SAL but I have yet to take a picture. Can not wait for Tonia to send December so that I can complete another SAL.

Another SAL finish

I have another SAL finishand a SAL update. Still behind but know with time it will be completed.

Guess what is holding me back from finishing other SAL's is projects that have come up. Small stitching and sewing projects. Holidays are around the corner and I may slow down again...lol. Later
