SAL RULES

This will be a very loosely organized SAL.
--Participants may work at their own pace and choose charts in any order that suits their fancy.
--Participants may post photos at any stage in the process: WIP, Cross Stitch finish, Final finish.
--Since only retailers who attended the 2006 Indy market are authorized to distribute or kit these charts, all participants are asked to refrain from copying and/or sharing the charts with others. Those wishing to acquire the charts should inquire at their favorite LNS. I do know they are available [with an additonal purchase] as a CD-rom of all 41 charts from The Silver Needle in Tulsa, Oklahoma.
--Let's all have fun with this very generous gift from the participating designers.

My Collection So Far

Starting in 2013, I got serious about trying to stitch one of these charts each month as an ornament.  For the most part, I have managed to stick to that schedule.  These are the ornaments that will be adorning my 2014 Small Town USA themed Christmas Tree.  I known I have shown them before in piecemeal fashion but I thought it would be nice to show them all together.

So far I have stitched:






The Antique Samplers Shop by Barb Allen for The Needle's Work Antiques











The Bakery by JBW Designs






The Book Shop by Mosey and Me



The Button Shop by Cecile McPeak for Just Another Button Company








Cafe du Monde by Leslie Wristers






The Church by DebBee's Designs













The Cross Stitch Shop by The Cross Stitchery & MSF












The Fiber Shop by The Heart's Content




The Fire Station by Wild Heart Designs














The Flower Shop by My Mark












The Frame Shop by East Side Mouldings













The Honey Shop by Shepherd's Bush












Milady's Tea Shop by Milady's Needle












The Post Office by Knotted Tree Needle Art





The Primitives Shop by Prairie Moon












The Quilt House by Nancy Pfeiffer






The Saloon by Crescent Colors











The Shoe Shrine by Sam Sarah Design













The Silversmith by Charland Designs: by some weird trick of the light, this fabric is not showing its true blue color.













The Star Theater by Heart in Hand




 The School House by La-D-Da









The Town Clock by Cricket Collection



The Town Hall by Weeks Dye Works












The Toy Shop by Olde Colonial Designs



The Train Depot by Val's Stuff














And this is the backing fabric that I have used for all the ornaments .  IRL it is a bit of a darker navy blue.
