Small 2014 check-in

It check-in day for the 2014 Smalls SAL.   

I said my goal was for 6 smalls during 2014 , not one per month, knowing I wanted to do somethings over 1, therefore turning them into a Small.

And so I have a start, not actually a finish for the end of the first month.

Here's what it should look like at the end:


And here it is as of January 29th.


I'm stitching over 1 on a 26ct natural linen.   I plan on stitching all my Nutcrackers on this fabric. (unless my eyes fail me)

Meanwhile the new grandson is doing very well.  Just before he arrived, he swallowed a big gulp of fluid from the womb. He now seems to have it fully flushed out of himself and is feeding better.  He is definitely a keeper!

Stick with it. Get all these little pieces done before your eyes start to go. I know from experience! :)

Your piece will be lovely. I don't think my eyes could handle stitches that small. Congrats on the new grandbaby!
