Sleeping Angel by Just Nan

An older design by Just Nan. This is not one of my favorite design from her. But I thought it is different enough and I have the box for the finishing, so I don't really have any excuse. I am trying to work off my kit stash.

My Sampler by Sheepish Designs

This is the February freebie SAL alternative choice. It was fun and quick to stitch this one. The "A" is done using synmar cross while "B" is done using four sided stitches. Since I used a smaller count fabric than expected, I wasn't able to do the rice stitch on the alphabet "C". Even using one strand of thread, it looked funny and I decided to do simple cross stitch. The finished piece still looks wonderful.

Folk Heart Needle Roll by Shepherd's Bush

This is the February SAL assignment for NR-A-month program. I want to get this one done earlier so that I can send it out as birthday present to a stitcher friend.

Winter Scissor Fob by Drawn Thread

The Drawn Thread bb is holding a freebie SAL this year. Of course, I am very optimistic since this is only the beginning of the year, to participate and finish all the monthly stitching. (hehe...)

Christmas Drawer by Shepherd's Bush

Life became quite hectic at the end of last year with all the changes in career, love, and health. I started this project toward the end of December, but was not motivated to finish it before the end of the year. Finally, I picked it up again this last week. Once I started stitching, it wasn't too bad at all. It was finished in 2 seatings.
