Turtle Trot 2014 SAL and MMMM SAL update

Hi,

Thanks for your kind concern over my finger hurt . Its fine and back on its job now. I know it was a bit childish to say because crafters go through needle accidents some or the other time .

Let's see what I am up to on my SAL(s) status .

First, MMMM (Mega Mini Month Madness) SAL hosted by Pull the other thread for the month of October . I have completed one more yesterday . To know more about this SAL click here and to know more about my projects click here .


This looks small but it has 17 colors and since I am doing on canvas its taking long for me to stitch .


Turtle Trot is hosted by Claudette from BAP-attack blog . To know about this SAL click here and to know about my 10 projects click here . To see the progress of others, click here .


1. Ladybird fairy by Joan Elliott

2. Jungle Japes (height chart) by Durene Jones 
 I need a suggestion for this . The Koala's ears and cheeks as per Anchor shades in the chart have turned out dark pink . Maybe, because the Indian shade numbers differ a bit . Do you think I should use lighter shades ? I find it cute with dark shades also . I have not done back stitching .What do you say?

3. Easter Chicks by Belle & Boo
Completed :) More pictures, here .



4. Happy Days by Felicity Hall

I am not liking this because I ended up using too many colors . Moreover, only recently I came to know that the symbol for quarter stitches ---- 1/4th stitch and 3/4 stitch are same and based on the need of the design we have to use either of these . But I have stitched only 1/4 th everywhere and now I need to change to 3/4 th at many places to get smooth edges :((
