My First SAL... not quite done!


 
So I’m not as far along as I wanted to be on my SAL considering it should have been finished today!  I normally don’t start outlining until I’m all done, but thought I should do the cake so it could be seen better.  Still unsure about the colours of the cat, I think keeping the suggested colours is easier than trying to change it to one of our kitties!


It seems that every time I read someone’s wonderful blog, I find more projects I want to stitch!  I just don’t know how you keep up – those of you who have multiple SALs!  I still have to put my finishing touches on Nathan’s sampler and have it framed.  I also have one I finished for my bff, but just have to figure out how I want to finish or frame it.

 And this is what I get for trying to read blogs instead of stitching and snuggling!

Hey, Astrid, your SAL looks even better with the back stitching done!! If you think you might want to change the colors of the kitty to one that matches yours, have you looked at her other patterns? I think she also designs a kitty similar in colors to yours, you could just substitute colors...does that make sense? Cute picture of you with your "buddy", they need their share of loving too! LOL

Don't worry about the SAL! Maybe you'll be able to catch up this month and finish both :)
The important is to have fun doing it :D
