Smalls SAL - October 2024

Hi all!

I'm so sorry, guys... I thought we had another Friday in October but realised today (Monday) that we don't! So I'm going to back-post this and pretend that...

It's the last Friday of the month, so time for the Smalls SAL.

Entries can be anything Small you have cross stitched during the month, be it an individual piece, part of a set, a portion of a big design, or even an unfinished Small if you haven't been able to complete it. All Smalls, or part(s) thereof, are welcome!



Once again, I have nothing Small to show, having not picked up a needle for two months now.

So it's straight over to you!

Please link up using the URL of your Smalls SAL post, with a title (usually your name) and a thumbnail. The link will stay open for 10 days.


Mister Linky's Magical Widgets -- Thumb-Linky widget will appear right here!

In a way I feel really bad continuing to run this SAL when the reason Mary handed it over was because she could not commit to a Smalls finish each month.

So, I think you will all agree that it's about time I gave myself a really good talking to and started stitching again. So that's what I'm going to do starting Monday.

I'll start with one of my Nordic Christmas designs as they are small and simple, and at least will give me something to show in November's Smalls SAL! I've set a target of 15 minutes per day to begin with but whether that leads on to anything else remains to be seen.

I also feel bad being away from blogland and emails for so long, so that's another thing I need to rectify. Fingers crossed.

If I don't appear before, I'll be back on 10th for the FFG SAL. 

Take care,
Rachel x

I'm stitching more but blogging less. I need to find a balance!
I'm doing a Spooky Link up for Halloween this year so do try to pop over if you get a chance.

I think the blogging world is changing, I certainly blog less. I'm not sure if that's because I'm stitching gifts and seem to blog the same thing each post. There are not so many comments on my blog anymore either which is a bit disheartening, although people do reply to my comnents on other blogs which is nice. Good luck with your stitching, a little every day is a great way to start going again. Happy stitching

I for one am glad you are hosting these blogs, if only so we get a lifesign from you regularly! I'm also bad with the smalls, but currently working on several so should be able to check in in November...fingers crossed.
