F&S Winter Exchange and more....

LK "Welcome Seasons-Winter"

I received word that Kendra has received her squares. This was my first time participating in a Fair & Square exchange and can't wait to do more! It was nice not to have the pressure of "finishing" the item.


LK "Friends Make Life Sweeter"

This year I decided I would make as many gifts as possible to not only help save some money but also give me a reason to stitch some of the stash I have accumulated over the years. This is my first gift for a co-worker's birthday in April. I usually prescribed to the JIT time management style ( Just In Time!) and have made another decision to avoid procrastination. It also serves as my SAL project for February over at the PALS Delight BB and I hope to finish it this weekend into a flat-fold or cube. The bonus to this completion is I have now finished two of my 50 S.O.S goal.

I have also been able to stitch a Valentine design as well as one Christmas ornament for some other SALs. Once I finish them this weekend, I hope to share pics. Well off to stitch some more... happy stitches.
