Smalls SAL - October 2023

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 (or more) specifically for this SAL which doesn't appear elsewhere on my blog.

So, I haven't linked up to this Smalls SAL for six months (sorry, Mary) but am back this month in time to show the final two little Advent ornies:

Red And White Advent Calendar Day 19 Star by Durene Jones
Stitched on 16ct white with silver lurex aida using a blend of DMC 725 and DMC Etoile 725
Started - 5th May 2023
Finished - 6th October 2023
(mislaid for a few months!)
Total Stitching time - 3 hours


Red And White Advent Calendar Day 16 Stocking by Durene Jones
Stitched on 16ct white with silver lurex aida using a blend of DMC 603 and DMC Etoile 603
Started - 7th October 2023
Finished - 10th October 2023
Total Stitching time - 3 hours 25 minutes


These have all been so enjoyable to stitch, and are one of those designs that I would happily stitch all over again but in a different colour scheme.

Talking of stitching all over again, next month's Small SAL will see the return of an old favourite 🐉!

Take care,
Rachel x

Well done stitching up all these cute ornies! I really like the star one, although with the way it's shaped I'm thinking more 'Magical Anime Girl' than 'Advent'!
