Smalls SAL - August 2021

Hello all!

It's the last Friday of the month so time for the Smalls SAL. Thank you, Mary, for continuing to host this fun little SAL. Pop over to Mary's Blog to see what other participants have been stitching in the way of Smalls this month.



Each month I stitch a small project specifically for this SAL which doesn't appear elsewhere on my blog.

My small this month is another cutie, I'm afraid. He's been sitting in my Smalls pile for ages so I'm really glad it was eventually his turn:

Dragon With Chick by PovitrulyaHandmade (etsy)
Stitch Count 44 wide by 50 high
Stitched on 16ct Cloud Lemon over-dyed aida by sewitall.com
Started - 9th August 2021
Finished - 15th August 2021
Total stitching time - 8 hours 40 minutes


I changed a couple of the colours - there wasn't much of a contrast between the two greens and two yellows charted so I swapped in a darker green and lighter yellow. It was only after I'd finished him that I thought I should have used some Etoile on his scales. and wings, but nevermind.

Next month, well, September is always Hootie month!

Take care,
Rachel x

    He's a real cutie! I agree that some etoile might have looked nice too.
