January's Snowdrops

I think this is possibly the most beautiful finish I have had in a while. I just love the colours and the sentiment and it's this one that made me want to collect the whole series. I'm halfway there. I doubt very much I'll have all 12 by the end of the year but never mind!


Cottage Garden Samplings My Garden Journal January's Snowdrops

40 count Pearl Grey Newcastle Linen

DMC

Started 8th September 2013

Finished 13th October 2013

I have also finally finished part 1 of Little House Needleworks Song of the Seasons mystery and made a small start on part 2. Wow I think part 2 will take a while!

Part 2 of the Lizzie*Kate Holly and Hearts Mystery Christmas Sampler is on the way to me from Crafty Kitten and as the weather has been horrible here I stitched quite a bit on part 1 in the hope of getting caught up but I didn't make it! It is looking gorgeous though.

Finally I made a start on Plum Street Samplers Mary's Sampler SAL and got caught up with parts 1 and 2 before part 3 came out. Part 3 is sheep :)

This evening I'm hoping to get LHN Simplicity finished and tomorrow at craft group I want to start my October ornament. Oops I forgot to take a photo of the Think Positive SAL. Oh well will do that next time!

Before I go I have added some finishes of mine that I would like to sell. They have been on display in my home a while ago but I put them away in a cupboard. I thought maybe someone might like them and will give me a little stash money for them lol. I have added prices but feel free to make me an offer.

Until next time.

With much love

Sally
