Hello all!
It's the first Saturday of the month so time for the People's Choice SAL run by Jo from Serendipitous Stitching. Continued thanks to Jo for hosting this unique SAL which has a different theme each month.
This month's theme is Circles.
Off the top of my head I couldn't recall stitching any circles, but after looking through my projects I realised I was wrong. Here are some of them...
The two big eyes of Winter Owl (six circles for the price of one here!):
The balls in Dolphins With Ball (bit of a giveaway in the title there!) and Let's Play:
The sign in Platform 9 3/4 (it's a circle if you squint!):
The moon in In The Gloaming (you can just about see it on the right):
And lots of snow globes, most of which haven't been finished but these two have; JBW's Snow Globe and Ursula Michaels' Let's Be Frozen:
There are some circles in my stash too. I tend not to purchase circular projects, especially if they are designed as hoop finishes. But if they can be framed or finished as square ornies, I'll happily buy them! My favourites waiting in the wings are these four seasonal chart by FlyingFishXStitch (no longer on etsy):
And finally... 'one day' (hahaha) I'd like to stitch something from Ink Circles, not only because I like the idea of a mandala, but because I like mindless stitching with variegated threads. This one, Circular Logic, tops the list. It reminds me of Spirograph!
Gosh, that was quite an extensive post; hope you enjoyed it!
Next month's theme is Chocolate... I can feel the weight going on already!!!
Take care,
Rachel x

You have so many circles! I really like the snow globes and the winter owl is very sweet.
I can find in this Ink circle pattern the same style Jo shows us in her post. Amazing pattern (maybe good for headache for me!). The four seasons are really great and I hope you'll stitch them soon. Well done with your choice of circles : balloon, frames, moon, eyes... and bubbles, of course! So obvious, love them all. xxx
What a fun post. Oh I love the seasonal set. Too bad they aren't a store any more. I would have grabbed them up. Well maybe a good things then haha.
The owl is very cute. I also have Let’s Be Frozen in my stash. I LOVE the seasonal circles. I look forward to you starting them.
What a great selection of (slightly hidden) circles!
Ooh, Circular Logic is on my own to-start-soon-list...I got the fabric and floss and everything! Maybe I should stop talking now before we get roped into another SAL ;)
Thanks for taking part in The People's Choice this month. You did find a lot of circles! I didn't even think of the moon.
Love the seasonal pictures too, I find it hard to resist a seasonal design.
