 SAL time again.  Wow, it seems like it was yesterday.  However I have actually been busy.  I want to get this piece, Pandemic done before Christmas.

Before I forget here is the latest member list.  Please check everyone out.  They do such marvelous stitching.

 I got the photo to stay but it is still huge.  Not sure how to shrink any further.  I guess I can live with it.

SAL time

Way behind.  I really need to stitch faster or more or both to get this (Pandemic) done by the end of the year.

Here is the last posted photo:

I wanted this as a header but it won't let me.  IF you know how to get the photo where the other :header: used to be, please let me know.
