Christmas in July
Sales. I’d be so much richer without
them. J
Still, I did pick up these.
The Halloween
issue I got a discount on by signing up for the Christmas issue. The Santa’s Village patterns finish off my
set, so it seemed like a good investment.
London is starting
to break out in words. Either that or it’s
the top of a train that’s making a trail of white puffy clouds. J
I didn’t finish a
Christmas piece for the Smalls SAL but there are these.
The palm tree
design is from the book, Rainbow of Stitches.
I used some old stash floss. This
is J & P Coats Pastelles #557. Good
thing I didn’t run out of floss because I only bought skein way back when. Next I have my eye on a floss color by Six
Strand Sweets called Chocolate Covered Cherries. So the big question is – cupcake or ice cream
design?
With a little luck
and a lot more stitching, I’ll be back on Saturday with a YOTA update.
Happy stitching

Great stash, I got the Halloween issue as well. Love the small finishes and your stitching on London looks great.
ReplyDeleteI love your little monthly pieces that your doing. Can you tell me where the charts are from.

Hi, the monthly pieces all come from a book called "Sand, Sea & Cross Stitch" by Anna Field. You should be able to find it on Amazon. It's a fun book.
DeleteHi Tiki. Can you also tell me what issues those Vintage posters are in. I love them.

The London poster is in Cross Stitch Gold, issue 37 (USA), from August of 2013. I'll have to look up the dates on the other two, but London is the first of the series.
DeletePiękne prace!
