mystery stitch-a-long

I have senior moments where I simply forget how and where to save and post everything. Anyway, here is a great SAL by By The Bay and I am determined to do this one!!! Go on over and check Donna's Blog and get the details. Fun stitch for summer :)

Just Nan sal finish!!!

Now this isn't just any finish. This is a wip-into-ufo-into-wip-into-ufo-into-wip-into-FINISH!!!!
I started this piece very soon after it's publication. I wasn't used to the checkered fabric and it gave me fits. The colors so subtle were interfering with fabric with color squares, etc.

A great big thanks to Zeb over at Keep Calm and Stitch for Just Nan Sal and Just Nan junkies fb group I became determined. I couldn't seem to start one without finishing this one. So, here it is complete with all my mistakes, a few tears, and some changes out of pure frustration.

A Friday and January finish for me!!!

Oh wow! Thanks to someone in one of my stitching groups I saw this piece stitched and had to have it for myself. Good thing that google search bar is there because I can find charts so easy; or maybe it's not so good sometimes :)
Anyway, here it is. I have other things to post too but it will be  over the weekend I post sal pics.
To get this post in is a miracle. It does make a difference when you got something to show, doesn't it?

Good Time to Start...Again!

Happy New Year to all the bloggers out there, my friends who know me and my friends who don't know me yet!
I hope to make this year a blogging good year. Last year was a total loss so starting from scratch is always the easiest way sometime.
