Smalls SAL - November 2024

Hi all!

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!



Well, I am going to surprise you all this month because I have not one but two Small finishes - sort of! Both are halves of their wholes but, seeing as my Smalls have been negligible this year, I'm counting them!

First up is the back for my April Biscornu:

Started - 28th October 2024
Finished - 3rd November 2024
Total stitching time - 3 hours 30 minutes


The back is a slimmed-down version of the front here:



And then there is the back of the March Biscornu:

Started - 4th November 2024
Finished - 10th November 2024
Total stitching time - 3 hours 5 minutes


Which is also a slimmed-down version of the front:



With any luck, at least one of these should be my FFO for December.

Now it's 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!
This preview will disappear when the widget is displayed on your site.

I am slowly working on another Small, so fingers crossed there will be another entry next month.

But first, see you on 10th December for the FFG SAL.

Take care,

Link-up For Fully Finished Gallery SAL - November 2024

Hello!

It's the 10th of the month so time for the Fully Finished Gallery SAL - the penultimate one of the year already! This is the place to show the cross stitched projects you have FFOd since your last link-up.



This month I have my third and final Nordic Christmas Sampler. Unsurprisingly it's been completed to match the previous two, using complimentary backing fabric and silver bling ribbon:



Now it's your turn.

Please link-up using the URL of your FFG SAL post and not the home page of your blog, adding a thumbnail of a finish and either your name or your blog name as the caption. The link-up will stay open for 10 days.


Mister Linky's Magical Widgets -- Thumb-Linky widget will appear right here!
This preview will disappear when the widget is displayed on your site.
If this widget does not appear, click here to display it.

And please don't forget to follow other links and support fellow fully-finish-offers.


In 'treat this with trepidation' news, I am stitching again! It's only for a few minutes, and not every day, but does mean that there will actually be something for me to show in the Smalls SAL later this month! Tiny steps...

Take care,
Rachel x
