No idea what the Smalls SAL is all about? Click the graphic above to learn more (and see lovely smalls from others!)
All I managed last month was finishing a small I had already finished the stitching on, but I'll take it as a win!
This is Keep a Little Secret by Just Nan, also known as She Who Makes You Stitch Really Intricate Designs, Only to Hide Them in a Tin or Box. I love it, anyway.
Why did I have so little time this month, you may ask? Well, I spent two weeks in Shanghai and and Tokyo! And let me tell you, jet lag is REAL. I'll just show you one thing for now...I "rescued" this temari from an airport gift shop on the way out of Tokyo.
Isn't it gorgeous? I say I "rescued" it because...airport gift shop. And it was only about $20! I know how much work went in to this temari, and I will appropriately appreciate it!

I absolutely adore the little peacock piece. I hope you enjoyed your trip. Tokyo and Shanghai are on my bucket list...some day... Have a good day! --Andrea
You have a very good excuse about being away! Will you tell (and show) us more once your jetlag is gone?
The peacock is gorgeous. Such an intricate design.
Haha, why does JN do that? Let's have them all on display!
