For a while this month I was not sure which of my smalls would get finished for the check in. I was working on several you know, and it was sort of a race to the finish, which one would “win,” and how many I could get done!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well, it’s a tie…sort of.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I finished the stitching for Spring Flowers Pinkeep! I worked out the dilemma with my Barn Gray thread running out. I decided to go with the Banker’s Gray as being “close enough.” The test is: can you tell which flowers were stitched with one and which with the other? I’m not sure I can and I just stitched them this week!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Isn’t it cute? The kit came with the finishing materials so I will get this made up for the September Finished Objects Gallery. Hopefully!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And I finished the red stitching on the Autumn Foliage mini sampler by the Heart’s Content. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now I do need to come through the whole piece with a cream color so it’s not *quite* finished, but I got done what I wanted to get done for this month! And the background should be a no-brainer as there is no counting. I’m so glad I splurged on this little kit. It is taxing to stitch but SO satisfying to have it done! There is such delight and charm in such a tiny thing!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And so now it’s your turn…what have you stitched this month? <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
