August Stitch-along | Week 4

Thanks to everyone who participated in the August stitch-along! There were so many great pieces this month -- too many, really, to show them all. I've collected most (if not all) of the photos from the Flickr pool and compiled them in a few Flickr galleries. You can always search Flickr for our tag, "auguststitchalong", to see everyone's pictures.

To close out the month, I wanted to show a few finished pieces and some more works-in-progress. If you're still stitching away, don't worry! We'd still love to see your progress over in Flickr.

  4. These are GREAT. I'm in love with the little fairy piece. I have some of that fabric. I may have to do something with it now. :D

  5. John, this was so much fun, and it definitely stretched me--it's harder than it looks to try to match stitches to fabric, especially when you're still expanding how many stitches you know! Thanks for the great stitch-a-long. There are so many beautiful pieces.
