What are these, I hear you ask, well, a TUSAL is a Totally Useless Stitch A Long, where we collect our ORTs (Old Raggedy Threads) each month - it is sort of like a record of how much ( or little) we have stitched. It is run by the wonderful Daffycat and you can check out all of the other TUSALers on her blog It's Daffycat.
Also each month I participate in the Smalls SAL run by Stitching Lotus. On the last Wednesday of each month we post about the Small/s we have stitched for that month. (A Small being whatever you like but just not a big project).
So, here we go:
These are my ORTs since May - Home on the left and train/plane on the right.
Now, I have been a bad Smalls SALer, as I have not posted since May - so that is June, July and August missing! ... and I have finished a few things since then!
Let me show you:
Days 5, 6 and 7 of Prairie Schooler's 12 Days of Santa:
"Land of Liberty" by Bent Creek which was a Travelling Pattern.
A couple of Halloween pieces:
Springtime Messenger:
The mug rug which I could only show you part of last time:
Some Christmas in July pieces:
... and some Fruit Swap items:
... and a couple of Strawberries mini pillows:
Well, I think that is it - there may be more but if I find any I will add them to next month's Smalls SAL update.
One last thing, it is not too late to join in the fun of the Swapaway which dear Kim and I are hosting. Click the picture below or on either side of my sidebar. Closes October 1st.
I am going to pop over to Heather and Daffycat's blogs now to see what everyone else has been up this month.
