Little Heart Swirl Finished

Finished this one over the weekend. Plan to stitch into a biscornu for a friend that likes purple. This was a freebie from Northern Expression Needleworks that I found on the Yahoo group The Sampler Life. This will also qualify for my Smalls SAL so you will be seeing it again.  It is also part of the 59 starts for the SoCal Debbie UCJC.

SoCal Debbie UCJC Starts #57, #58 and #59

I have made it to the finish line, I have made my 59 new starts for the year in honor of SoCal Debbie, a lady who loved cross stitch and loved to blog about it.  My last three starts have been so much fun that I found to more to add to the list over the weekend. Monday will definitely be my drop dead no more starts day.  I have 5 pieces to stitch for Q4OAC, three are due in April. The rest I can take my time and finish as time allows.  I also need to get back to my card making and basket weaving.  Plan on posting a few more freebies in the coming weeks.  This challenge and SFS has given me a chance to go through my stitching stuff and I have some things that need new homes.

I recently joined a new cross stitch group, The Sampler Life, which has a monthly small SAL. The current SAL started in January and had 223 members participating.   This looks like a great group, very active, members from all over the globe, and lots of stitching going on.  With all that being said I have two more starts to add to the list, I plan finish up with 61 pieces for this challenge. 



Enjoy!!
