Smalls SAL - August


I have been working on my Garden Chair by Cat's Whiskers (discontinued pattern).  I finally finished assembling the chair.  I still have the pillow (scissor fob) and parasol (umbrella to put your scissor inside).  Here are my happy dance photos, showing all around and under the chair.

TUSAL August & Update



Where has the summer gone?  It is the end of August.  Dave & I are returning to work this morning after having 2 weeks holidays.  Dave's mom visited us from New Brunswick.  We did day trips, and just relaxed.  Not looking forward to work today.

It is TUSAL time.  Not sure what it is.  Click the icon on the left side bar of my blog.  I have mostly purple and orange floss this month.  Purple is from my miniature garden chair and the orange is from my Halloween exchange (due in October, but wanted to start it early).



Finished stitching the chair pieces, working on assembling it.  Here is a progress photo of the finished pieces.


Here is the fabric I'm going to line the parasol (umbrella) with.

Garden Chair update

On the holiday Monday I finished stitching the seat cushion

and the parasol (umbrella). 

Tonight I completed the stitching on one of the arm rolls.  

I just have one more arm roll left to stitch.
