Winter Stamp SAL Final Reveal


Howdy do, Sunshine and welcome!  


It has been a whirlwind of a month with lots of posts in the Winter Stamp SAL, but "it is all she wrote" as they say.

  I finished the large piece . Eeeh I am doing the "Snowman boogie"!

 I can not thank you enough for the sweet visits, words of encouragement and support as I have shared all of the little stamps.

 As many of you know, Mr. Pinker and I  have been camping. Each time that we had internet service,  I was excited to read your sweet messages. 

I finished Winter Stamps in a thrifted frame which has a few dings in it , but I am ok with that.

Upon my return home, I will be finishing my little individual stamps into pin pillows. I have also designed another winter stamp which I will share later in the year. I may design more as inspiration comes to me- I am thinking I need a snowman tree come Christmas time. 

I have enjoyed each and every minute of sharing these stamps and I so appreciate all of you. 🤗

 As Always, 

Happy  Stitching and Quilting, y'all

Melisa

Thank you for the sweet visit.

  1. It's adorable, Melisa!!! No one will ever notice the 'dings' and if they do, so what. It means your hands are busy and you're obviously having fun. What's next dear lady? Darlene J

  8. This will be my first "Stamp along" -- but I dyed my white fabric too dark (used too much dye). Can you tell how much dye you used to get that light blue color? I used the Rit liquid in denim. Thank you so much.

  9. So Adorable!! I stitched each stamp as a small pillow and am going to put in a wooden tray as a centerpiece for my dining table. I did that with the Autumn Stamps last year and put in a red ceramic bowl. I finished Cardinal House (or And the Snow Fell) last night too. Now on to the next Saltbox and start on the Spring Stamp collection!! Your beautiful creations keep me stitching each day and I love that you share them with everyone - cannot thank you enough for your generosity. Carrie

  13. Thank you for the SAL. This is the first one I have participated in and am enjoying it. When I dyed my fabric, first I worried that it was too light, then I thought it might be too dark. I think it is just fine, a little more mottling than yours. I have a few more stamps to stitch, but hope to finish it soon. When I fully finish I'll try to post a pic on Instagram.

  19. Melisa, ha sido un verdadero placer hacer este SAL que nos has regalado. Es maravilloso!!!
    Yo lo terminé el día 30 de enero y todavía no sé si enmarcarlo o hacer un banner. Pero sea lo que sea, estoy muy contenta del resultado. Y el tuyo ha quedado precioso con ese marco tan bonito que le has colocado.
    Lo lavaré y, en cuanto lo tenga preparado, publicaré en mi instagram el resultado, etiquetándote por supuesto. Esta joyita hay que enseñarla :)
    Melisa, gracias por tu generosidad y por haber hecho que disfrutemos tanto con este proyecto.
    Besos y abrazos desde España.
