It’s been three weeks since our last update and I have made some progress on this project. Here is where I left off last time: And here is where I am now: I am starting the crown but I have to tell you the monochromatic pallet is starting to get to me.

SAL #3 Crown of Thorns
Good morning from windy New York! We are expecting a high wind storm the next 2 days with winds reaching 75-80 mph. I didn’t get a lot stitched these last three weeks. I have been catching up on my reading instead of crafting but if the weather reports are right I will be getting aContinue reading “SAL #3 Crown of Thorns”
SAL -#1 – Crown of Thorns
I’m back! I am so excited to be back with my favorite stitchers. I was gone for quite a while because I wanted to concentrate on getting my debt paid down. Now that I am well into my 80 week challenge I decided it was time to get back to stitching. I received a kitContinue reading “SAL -#1 – Crown of Thorns”

SAL Update Project Onions and Gourds
Christmas is over in the bakery for us and this year we baked over 550 dozen cookies. That’s over 6600 cookies! That doesn’t include the dozens of breads, pies, rolls and other sugary confections we made. Needless to say I got zero progress done on my SAL in the last three weeks. My hands neededContinue reading “SAL Update Project Onions and Gourds”
SAL Update #4 Project Onions and Gourds
This time of year is very tough for me to get much stitching done because I am a baker. Yesterday was a 10-1/2 hour day and it will only get worse as the weeks leading up to Christmas get closer. Throw my son’s and husband’s work schedules and basketball schedule in there and well…you knowContinue reading “SAL Update #4 Project Onions and Gourds”
