October FFG

The 10th of the every month Rachel has come up with this fantastic kick in the bum. It's called the Fully Finished Gallery. I know I love stitching. I love finishing my stitching of course. But then I throw it into a drawer. Why? It deserves to be on display. To show off how much fun I had making that beautiful project after all. I've been trying of course but this FFG SAL is an excellent reason to have fun and blog about it after. Perfect.

Stop over here to see what others have finished this time too.

Now to my report...

I finished my September Lizzie Kate Flip It Stamp on the 15th. Then I got busy on my October monthly requirements...

I finished Mom's October pillow from Sand, Sea & Cross Stitch book on the 2nd.

Then the reason I'm posting today instead of yesterday. I put the finishing touches on my October Lizzie Kate Flip It Stamp last night...
