It's a free SAL!

Stitch-a-longs are wonderful and even better if they are free....we all love free stuff (especially stitching stuff!) don't we? I stumbled on a beautiful and free stitch-a-long and one of the great things about this one is that it last all year long! Normally I would run a mile from anything that lasts that long as my interest usually wains half way through, but this SAL (stitch-along) takes only a couple of hours per week. Even I can do that :) Of course, I'm always late to the party, so I had to catch up....but it was so easy to do. Here's me all caught up to week four...

 I chose a pale blue 14 count aida that I had in my stash and used a DMC blue variegated thread that was also languishing in my thread box unused and unloved (but not anymore!)

Here's a close up of weeks one and two boxes....

...and then weeks three and four...

...week five will go in the last box....

So, where can you find this wonderful stitch along? Its by Peppermint Purple and you can find it on Peppermint Purple's Facebook page.  There's also a SAL group where you can see all the wonderful different colour combinations people have used. Each section is released on a Wednesday...suddenly Wednesdays are fun again!

Since these black work squares don't take up too much time (even if you are playing catch-up!) I had enough time to start another little design.This is a Margaret Sherry cutie from World Of Cross Stitching magazine......

So now I'm feeling all happy in my little stitching corner!

Until next time....happy stitching!
