2014 Smalls SAL Very Late Update Due To Technology

Technology really drives me nuts sometimes.  I use my phone to take my photo's as it takes them reasonably well and have never had a problem until now.

I tried to get my pics for the update on the 29th but my phone just would not show up on my laptop.  I tried everything from shutting down my phone and my laptop and nothing worked.  I tried it a few times over the course and still nothing... and then today all of a sudden it works!!!!

Anyway I don't know if I still get counted as it's late but anyway here goes.

First is the one I had stitched before and didn't finish.  I only had to add the gold metallic and then turn it into the decoration.


And here is the one I did for the SAL from start to finish:


I spray my decorations with scotchguard and was totally sad to see that the red I used around the edges ran on one of the decorations.  It has never happend before so it was a bit of a shock.  Luckily not too much damage but it still bugs me.  I guess I will have to wash the threads and hope it doesn't run if I use it on a project as I like washing my stitching once done.

Isn't technology just sooooo annoying??!!! When I take pics with my phone I normally mail them to myself so I can save them off onto my laptop! Your ornies are really cute! I'm sure no one but you would have noticed the red :)

Those are super cute! Lovely stitching, and too bad about the red running, that can be a drag :(

Super cute though :)
