More variations – and another SAL…?

“There is one more variation that I want to do” … Well, perhaps make that two variations, as I just stumbled across a rather attractive combination of maize yellow fabric and a DMC Variations perle. Irresistible, wouldn’t you agree? Just the sort of springy, sunny look we need right now!

more variations

In spite of declaring on the Cross Stitch Forum, with sincere and utter conviction, that once every five years is about the right frequency for a Mabel’s Fancies SAL in order to keep my sanity, I have found myself scribbling ideas for another 12-month project. Oh-oh. Like Song of the Weather it would involve twelve small individual projects, all based around Hardanger but with lots of different surface stitches as well. Working title: “Round in Circles” (although my husband suggested “Round the Bend”). Would anyone out there be interested if this came up in, say, 2015?

  1. There are never enough SAL’s in my life! Hardanger and surface stitches! What a great idea! You can count me in!

  2. Though I’m just now getting to the end of the January Weather SAL, I’m absolutely enjoying it and would sign up for another “round” without hesitation, even if it came up in, say, 2014. 😉

  3. Am really enjoying the current SAL. As a beginner in Hardanger, the project size is great, and the experience of learning new stitches adds to the fun. Would love to do another one.

  4. Yes yes and yes lol you have really inspired me and i would love to learn different stitches 🙂

  5. I’m loving the current SAL and I just know I would have the same enthusiasm for another one. Go for it Mabel!!
