Switching it up for the SAL. Pretty Spring House #2

I have been working on my SAL Onions and Gourds all through the fall and winter months. I have gotten a ton accomplished on it but it’s time to put it away for the spring and summer because I need something light and fun to work on.

Last time I showed you Spring House by Brooke Nolan.

Here is where I started three weeks ago:

And here is my progress after three weeks:

Not a lot done but my garden has been calling me more.

I am not alone in this SAL, not by a long shot. If you click on the below links you will see some very talented stitchers! If you are interested in joining our group please contact Avis, the first link in this group.

See you in three weeks and Happy Memorial Day to my US friends! -MM

Welcome to my Blog! My world is my husband and son (soon to be moving into his own home) and my step-children (fully grown) and our two cats who are definitely ying and yang. My day job is as Deputy Clerk of my home town in Western, NY but when I get home I have two side gigs, one as a professional private baker, and two, as an Etsy shop owner selling vintage and antique dishes and accessories. I have been gardening and growing my own food since my grandfather taught me at the ripe old age of 5. I stitch, I bake, I grow food, I can and preserve, I grocery shop to save money and eat well and boy do I have massive to-do lists. I hope you enjoy my day to day writings.

  1. It makes complete sense to leave the gourds and onions for fall and winter. I love anything to do with houses, this would be fun to work on any time of year!

  2. I think this would be a great project to travel with. You can put it down, do something else, then pick it right back up and not be lost.
