I ran across a 2015 Smalls SAL while blog hopping. Thought this would be a great opportunity to stitch a back log of ornaments and small items. The SAL objective is to complete at least one small projects a month. I am aiming to do this!
Here is my finish for the month of January and some started projects.
Lizzie Kate Santa 2000. I changed colors to DMC Variations and DMC regular floss/thread. Then decided to add Mill Hill beads and a sparkly ball on Santa's hat. Then finish as a hanging flat ornament.
One finished and two started.
My Christmas Holiday Bear has had a few stitches added.Using DMC Light Effect Metalic threads and regular DMC floss/thread.
Other, not so small projects had a few stitches added, too.
Fleurs du Ciel SAL
And Serenity Harbor SAL has been started!
I also made my first cube finish. Not real happy with it. Have to say the ribbon hides a few sins here. But, I learned a few things and hopefully the next one will come out a little better. Think my main problem was the stitched fabric was pretty heavy/thick and wouldn't fold down tight enough.
Another framing!! This is a Just Nan design stitched some time ago. Finally found a suitable frame.
Finaly got around to framing The Angel of Winter, designer Maryln Imblum of Lavender & Lace.
Finished into an ornament is Funky Flower Meagan, designer Donna Bayless, By The Bay Needlearts. Donna was kind enough to enter my work on her blog. It always pleases me when a designer thinks my work is good enough to publish. A big thank you to Donna!
Also added a few stitches to my HAED Bubble Telescope. Will add more time, and stitches, and save Bubbles for the HAP(hugh A$$ Project) SAL update this saturday.
My amaryillis are still blooming and DH has cross pollinated the two. I am impatiently waiting for the light pink one to go to seed so I can plant, in house, for next years garden.
And then there are four!
I hope everyone is staying warm and cozy.
Thanks for stopping by and happy stitching!

Beautiful. I love the details. :)
Beautiful finishes and WIPs :-) I love the Lizzie Kate. I'm doing the Smalls SAL, too.
Super finishes and your box finish looks good. Might want to consider pulling a thread where the fold would go and it will fold easier.
Oh, thank you for the tip!!
Deb

Hi, what a lovely lot of stitching, I love the LK Santa :-)
I'm patiently waiting for my Amaryllis to burst into flower, this is the first time I've grown one and have been lucky enough to have a bulb that produced 2 flower stems. Yours look beautiful.
Lovely finishes all of them and your WIPs look great too. Your cube finish is very pretty, I like it.
Thank you for visiting on my blog.
Great finishes you've made as well as progress on your WIP's. Framed pieces looks gorgeous.
oh WOW!!! LOVE you Liberty finishing and the sampler itself. SO much so that I too have this chart and need to pull it out. Angel of Winter is remarkable!! Congrats on a stunning finish and looks so magnificent in the oval gold frame! I think I would be glued starring at it everyday.
And congrats on Funky Flower Meagan - its another beauty.
love Annette
