The Smalls SAL is hosted by Heather from Stitching Lotus
This year I have two Small Challenges:
2. The Christmas Ornie SAL Blog
Now I have finished the Counting Bats sampler I have to find a smaller piece for each theme for the Hallowe'en blog. This month I chose Ghastly, Ghostly Ghouls also by Just Nan for the two little cats which fit the month's theme:
Now I have finished the Counting Bats sampler I have to find a smaller piece for each theme for the Hallowe'en blog. This month I chose Ghastly, Ghostly Ghouls also by Just Nan for the two little cats which fit the month's theme:
stitched on 28 count lilac linen
I'm not sure if I'll finish it before the end of the month but the cats have been done.
I started a new Hallowe'en small ready for the Blog Hop:
stitched on 32 count Twilight Blue linen
This is Sampling Hallowe'en by Lizzie*Kate and was a gift from Mii for last year's Hallowe'en Mail Art Exchange.
I also completed finish-finishing my Hallowe'en Cubes from Primitive Hare:
Here's a shot showing the side fabrics, the same print in three colourways:
Now I have finished them I have started on the Christmas Cubes, also by Primitive Hare:
Here is this month's block:

And here are all eight so far:
Here's a nearly finish of the third Byzantine Ornament by Teresa Wentzler, I ran out of beads and SewandSo's delivery is no longer "next day" so I had to wait until today but have had no time to attach them:

Those cubes are so cute and creative.
All of your Halloween designs are so cute. I love the cubes!
Oh goodness, where to begin. Loving GGG, although it does make me smile that you've done all that for the two tiny cats. Both sets of cubes are terrific, but I am curious - does the missing Christmas 'h' match either November or December SAL theme? The ornament is so rich looking - love the colour combination.
sono bellissimi Jo! Buona fortuna per il concorso
Your cubes look amazing - I need to take a leaf or two out of your finishing book!
Ghastly, Ghostly by Just Nan is a real sweet project. These tiny little cats are too cool.
Congratulations on finishing the Halloween cubes perfectly in time before Halloween. And also the Christmas cubes are nearly done - only one more to stitch and finish.
Wonderful stitching. Your Halloween blocks look amazing. Look forward to seeing the Christmas ones come together.
Lovely stitching and finishing. The cubes are fantastic.
The Hallowe'en blocks look magnificent!
You didn't think to add an apostrophe block then? ;D
Great stitching Jo!

All are so very sweet! I need to get back to stitching when I get home.....seems like life has gotten in the way....guess I should look at it as me taking a sabbatical.😃

I love your Halloween cubes finished as well as most of your stitching. Congratulations on your 600th blog post! I voted for your blog and am looking forward to the blog hop. Unfortunately, I don't have anything Halloween stitched so I wasn't able to join, but I'm planning on changing that by next year.
Great work, Jo! I especially love those cubes. And it is also wonderful to see you stitching up TW's ornaments. Aren't they lovely?
Thanks for taking part in the Smalls SAL!
