I can see some light at the end of the stitching slump tunnel! I finished off these two fobs yesterday...well, one's a pin cushion actually. The pin cushion was started in January according to my note on the chart but I must admit, it's been sitting waiting to be finished properly for a while. The other I started reasonably recently. Probably a few months though.
I just did an order from Lois and got 3 more small SB pieces to do. Simple Joys Pin Cushion, Tiny Garden needle roll (which matches this fob) and Sweet Stitches Fob although I'm not particularly fussed with the colour of the ribbon. It's bright aqua and while I love that colour, it just doesn't do it for me on that fob. But we shall see when it's stitched (which could be a while LOL). I also got the latest Lizzie*Kate Tiny Tidings. I just looove LK and her things are so quick to stitch so you may see a couple of those before Christmas. It just depends how I'm feeling.
So...onto the pics.

They are beautiful!
Woohoo! Great to see a couple of finishes from you. You can do it.....
They are both gorgeous Alison! I'm just pulling myself out of a slump too; with SB as well - the holly and ivy sampler - I'm just working the words now.
They are both lovely, Alison! I'm trying to pull myself out of a stitching slump, too, but it's hard going!
Lovely SB finishes! Glad you rewarded yourself with a few new stash items to stitch. :)
Love your sweet finishes :) I have Be Happy all stitched, still need to finish it :)
