Gingerbread Cottage
by Country Cottage Needleworks
stitched on 28ct Vintage Beige Cashel linen
Each December Sally and I do a SAL, and this year we chose Gingerbread Cottage, now I had not stitched for a while and trying to get back in to stitching and not let Sally down I concentrated on trying to get it finished and actually managed to finish it before Christmas. Sally stitches on lots of things in her rotation but take a look at her blog - she is stitching up a storm.
As I have not been blogging for an age, here is a picture of our December 2011 SAL, which I did not finish until January or February. Now I did decide on a finish for this one but it has not happened yet, but did finally get some supplies for the finishing last month.

I just love this snow man, and have great plans for the finishing.
I now have both of these patterns for sale, just leave me a comment.

Sally and I have already decided on the 2013 December SAL - I can't wait for that one.
I have already finished 3 things this year - which is a bit of a shock, so will try and keep blogging and updating you on my progress. Once again thank you everyone for visiting, and I am grateful to everyone who takes the time to leave me a comment. I hope to add you all to my sidebar - when I've worked out how to change the layout of my blog. I have already chosen a new template, and I followed the instructions but it didn't work, but I will keep trying as and when I have time.
