2nd post today ...
I've been on a stitching roll (no pun intended), and managed to both start and finish the stitching of my needleroll for this weekend's SAL. I stitched Summer Solstice by Eventide Designs. I changed the wording, though, to cover the summer months 'down under' - instead of stitching June, July, August, I recharted the wording to be Dec - Jan - Feb (after checking out the Winter Solstice chart online) :D I wasn't too sure what else to put in place of the 'American' flag on the top band, and I quite like it anyway, so left it as it was designed. I've been really keen to stitch this ever since I bought the chart, so I'm thrilled to finally have it completed. I'll wait to do the actual finishing when I have a few needlerolls to make up. Anyway, here's the stitching piccie:
Summer Solstice by Eventide Designs
Stitched on 28ct hand-dyed dried thyme Jobelan
with the recommended threads
That also means finish number 11 off my 50 projects challenge list - only 39 left to go woohoo :D
Next up is to get a few more stitches into a birthday gift - now my Kreinik braid is here I need to get cracking and get it finished. Then I need to get a few more Christmas ornies stitched. Housework? ... What housework??? LOL.

That turned out very pretty. Nice stitching, Anne!
Very Cute Anne, I like the flag too!
That is so lovely!! Congrats on getting it done so fast! How clever to change the months to those that apply to you :)
It's very pretty. Congratulations on finishing it up so quickly. :)
Congratulations on your finish! My, you are quick :) And, you are making awesome progress on your challenge...I'm inspired to try that myself beginning in January!!
Both of your projects today are beautiful, I absolutely LOVE the fob, and the needleroll will make up beautifully!
Congratulations!
:D
Congratulations on your finish, I think I'll have to add some of these Eventide designs to my stash next year. :)
Such a lovely finish! Your needles are smoking lately:)
Wow you're needles must be smoking, they're all lovely congratulations Anne
I very much like this design Anne! you did a wonderful job of it.
That's gorgeous! And fast! Well done! :)
wahoo Anne, another finish, and a lovely one too, look forward to seeing your needleroll all made up. (You've reminded me that I've only got this one in the series left to stitch, Kath and I stitched the other seasons as a SAL together a few years ago but didn't quite make it to "summer", lol)
Very nice Anne!!!
Great work, Anne! It looks really nice. :)

Your needle roll is lovely!! It's warm me as in Italy is very cold and foggy :o(
cheers
