ThreadBasket SAL - Part 1

So, I joined the second round of the ThreadBasket SAL. I've joined my first two SAL's ever in the last two weeks. I'm not sure what has come over me. Here is a photo of part one, which I have completed just under the Sunday deadline. Oh, the pressure! :)

30 Count Weeks Dye Works Straw Linen

That's about all I have right now. It was a busy week at work, so I didn't really get a chance to stitch on anything else. I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend.

Thanks again for the nice comments. I appreciate every one!

Stitching!

So, here are a couple pieces that I have finished stitching, but haven't finished into anything yet. Finishing. Ugh. I'm not very good at it. But that's a topic for another time.

The two pieces I have being framed right now are the Mystery Sampler by With Thy Needle & Thread and The Gameboard Sampler by Drawn Thread. I should have them back in a couple weeks. I can't wait! Tonight I am starting the SAL put on by The ThreadBasket. Can't wait to get started ~ it has a snowman in it. :)

Sorry that the pictures aren't the greatest. I may need to invest in a new camera. Does anyone have any suggestions for something that is easy to use, but takes good photos? Let me know!

As always, thanks for stopping by!
