The last Friday in August has just crept up on me, so it's time for the monthly Smalls SAL Report, hosted by Mary at Mary's Thread.
I've not much to show this month. Just a few Christmas ornaments, none of which has yet been finished up as an ornament. In fact, in my work basket right now I have 4 tiny stockings and six stitched designs all waiting to be finished ornaments. That's my task for next week.
First up, a Santa and an Angel for two nieces. The Santa is adapted from Robin Rowe's Folk Art Santa chart a Graphique Greetings design which was on the back of a Christmas card I received way back in 1988. I changed the colours, made some changes to the design and the border, and added the message.
I made another little beaded Christmas tree for my Christmas gift basket. At this stage it looks as though I won't be getting Christmas visitors this year (COVID restrictions), so my take-home Christmas gifts will actually become mailed-out Christmas gifts.
And that's all I have to show this month. I will be trying to finish up all the stitched pieces in my work basket before I stitch any more designs, but I may not be able to hold myself to this goal. Time will tell.

You are so talented to be able to make changes to the designs and I love your beaded Christmas trees. I'm sorry you won't be able to have visitors again this year.
Great stitching, very clever changes. It's a tough time ((hugs))
I love your little beaded trees and gorgeous Santa.
Such beautiful ornaments! I too love you trees. They are very special. Thank you for joining the SAL!
They all look great Lynne! You do such a great job on redesigning your stitching. They will be well received wither in person or via mail.
