Join me in my latest, big happy dance! I was thinking I wouldn't have another HD for a while as I didn't think I was quite as close to finishing this as I was! So I think I'll let my crappy pictures do the talking!
Shepherd's Bush Emmanuel's Song ( kit)
Started 3rd January 2011
Finished 9th May 2011
SAL with Barb and Colleen.
Thank you ladies for SAL-ing with me. I shall be joining you again next Monday with a new start. Thank you also to my dear friend, Barb, for RAK-ing me with the kit. I have loved every single stitch of this. Next week I plan on starting an SB fob as I fancy something small while I decide on what my next big one will be :)
I do have other stitching but haven't taken photos so will leave those until another time. Saturday evening I was in one of those moods and didn't seem to be able to settle on stitching one thing so by the time I went to bed I'd stitched on 3! I did a bit on my Jenny Bean Pin Tuffet, made a start on BBD AotH Moonlight Visitor and stitched on a gift! Sunday evening was the same but this time the JB came out again and the gift and I started SB Sweet Baby ornament for the SAL with Chris. I didn't stitch one last month so I think I need to get my finger out! So there'll be a few more photos next time and, hopefully, the JB Pin Tuffet might just be finished.
Thank you for all your sweet comments on my last post and for all your advice:) You girls are well and truly the best :) I was having a right royal pity party! My sister visited on Sunday afternoon and I was even close to tears talking to her. I need putting in a bag and shaking up!
I'm drawing my giveaway for Silver Creek Samplers Dandy Dreams chart a day early as I don't think I'll have time to do it tomorrow. Thank you to everyone who entered. I was amazed at the amount of people as I don't normally get that many comments! I have used Random.org to pick a winner for me ( I know it's lazy!)

Well that's it from me today. I've had a busy morning baking buns and defrosting the freezer so I'd better get those buns iced! I'm a little behind on blog reading but will get caught up tomorrow :)
Take care everyone!

Ohhh, Sally... what a beautiful finish!!! I know how happy you are with such a beautiful piece. I have so enjoyed seeing this progress. You always find such loyal people to do SAL's with, which is so nice. Anyway, I love the soft antique look of the sampler. Beautiful job!
Thank you for your soothing words on my blog. I sometimes have to be reminded that this is an enjoyable hobby, not to stress about! I have a tendency to stress about everything. I have to rely on anti-anxiety drugs. Love 'em - not really, LOL!
Another fabulous finish Sally, it's so pretty!
The sampler is gorgeous, congrats :)
quelle finesse c'est magnifique !!!
