SAL's I'm Participating in...(so far)

Wow how did it get to be February?  Its now past time for my WIPocalypse check in.  As promised last month, I'm going to talk about some SAL's I'm participating in for 2019.  

My last post was about the #stitch9challenge on Instagram & Facebook.  I won't rehash all those details here.  

I've also  joined the Facebook group HOD a Year of Celebrations SAL.   We are stitching Year of Celebrations by Hands on Design.  For me this will be a year long SAL. Others in the group have already completed all the charts!    I will be making these into pin keeps for my dough bowl.

I've started & completed stitching February:




I've also started March, made several mistakes, changed out the DMC colors to what I had in my stash & frogged a portion.   

   

Linen & Threads announced their new Free Mystery SAL at the beginning of January--Peacocks Garden.  Are you Kidding me?!!!!  I LOVE PEACOCKS. Obviously its a Mystery so I cant show you a photo of the design, but here is my progress:


 Definitely not something that will fit in my bowl.  Unfortunately, I'm off somewhere & I'll need to frog, before i can continue.  Therefore, he's in timeout. 😭



Emily C @ eclecticpossessions on Floss Tube & Instagram is hosing a SAL in honor of her birthday in March .  We will be stitching Goat Load by Plum Street Samplers. #goatloadbdaysal

Is that not the cutest?  This too will be displayed in my dough bowl.  






I had planned to start Starry Night Sampler as a  2018 SAL. All I need to do is pull threads.    Lucky for me there are a few folks planning to start it this June and I am going to join them. As I often do, I plan change up some of the colors! Unfortunately, this will also be too large for my dough bowl 😀.

I have not completely made up my mind as to how I will address Maynia this year.  I'm leaning toward the modified version that I followed last year.  If I have an incomplete former Maynia start, I will work on it for that day. If I have a free day, I may start a new SMALL project, which will either be for my dough bowl or a Christmas Ornament. I may also start my unicorn chart which I recently acquired.  We will just have to wait & see what I can accomplish between now & May.    

There may be other SAL's that will be announced during the year, but for now this is my list.  


 Until next time, Stitch on!  = ) Pam
