Northwind SAL--Week One

LK ABC Lessons


Rose's SAL Piece


Denise's SAL Piece


Shari's SAL Piece


This is so fun! There are 4 of us doing this pattern as a SAL. We started last Monday. We are to stitch 2 days per week on it. I chose Monday & Friday last week. I didn't get a whole lot accomplished on Monday, but made fabulous progress on Friday. I have loved every stitch of this project so far.
Denise (Riverside Stitching) is leading us in this adventure. She made great progress on her piece. She started totally different than I did.
Rose (Christmas City Stitcher) had a very eventful week last week, but still made great progress on her piece..She started at the top like Denise.
Angela (Indomitable Angela) started hers on a piece of linen, but wasn't happy with it, so she is starting over....we will see her progress next week...
On the days I am not stitching on the SAL, I pulled one of my OLD WIP pieces....I will work on this whenever I get the chance.
Today, I had NO stitching time......I had to do the preschool run with the little guy I babysit, but that wasn't the hard part of my day.
We moved our youngest out today....he has one semester left of college & he is working down there now.....so, away he went today...this mom is going to be very sad & lonely for a while.....he & I are very close....
Ok, nearly bedtime!!! Have a great week!!!

Nice progress on the SAL's. I looks like you are doing a different piece than the other 2 since you started in a different spot. I have to say you are putting them to shame too! LOL

Looks wonderful! What a great idea! Love the LK design....I want to do this one but she only sells it as a kit.
