Mary at Mary's Thread is the lovely host of the Smalls SAL. On the last Friday of the month we share our small stitching items that we have completed but not necessarily fully finished. As today is Saturday you can see I'm a day late in posting ... oops.
I have not stitched as much this month, I'm not sure why but I have been working on my tablecloth and finishing some more lovely letters se t in the post. I have also been stitching for the Needlecraft Haven Jubilee Exchange so although I only have two Smalls to show I think I have actually been busy.
My letters are L for my grandmother Lilian and a second E for Ernest the na e of both my grandfathers.
Ha ha I've just remembered I also stitched an autumn ornament for the Topsy Turvy SAL this month.
It's been a busy two weeks too: the secret week build up, the exciting weekend celebrating and the rest when back home. What am I talking about? Our daughter's engagement!
There's more photos on my previous blog post Engagement but here's the happy couple.
Mary has a link up post on her blog so we can pop over to see everyone's work, it's super to see all the lovely stitching. Thank you Mary for hosting this great SAL.

Love those letters and that color. It is nice how people are stitching letters that have a special meaning to them. Do you ever journal on the back of the ornaments the reason the letter was stitched? What do you do with them after the holiday?
Again, congrats to the beautiful couple!
I keep a list of who sent what and all corresponding emails. I put a note up by the tree saying what's behind it. They are stored in boxes in my attic, I have reused them as each theme does dominate my stitching for that year.
