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.

    Oh my gosh! All of those are so wonderful! Some definite inspiration for my (yet to be started) piece.

    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

    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.

    Those are some amazing shots, especially the detail you managed to grab on the last few photos there. Great site, the ideas are pretty impressive.
