Halloween Rules got a bit more work before getting packed up, but not as much as I was wanted. I was hoping to get the top part finished. Oh well, after the holidays it can come back out to play. There are so many mistakes in here, I can't even count them all. I guess that's what I get for stitching at 2 am. Luckily, most of them were things I could just work around and adjust the pattern a tiny bit.

I finished Part 2 of the Threadbasket / C Mon Monde SAL, finally adding in the green and a bit more red. All of the colors I picked out are starting to come together. I'm really enjoying the winter feel this has on the icy blue linen. I did make a slight modification to the chart, and stitched small Rhodes stitches as the red and white berries, instead of just the plain cross stitches charted.

Very pretty SAL piece.... and your Halloween Rules is going to be gorgeous on that linen!
I can't imagine getting any stitching done with sensitive, teary eyes--I'd say you've made great progress on both the SAL and the LK... All the colors you've chosen are wonderful!
The SAL piece is looking lovely!
Your SAL is so pretty, I really like the changes you made in the berries. I really give you a lot of credit working through your eye problems. Take care!
Oh I do hope your eyes clear up soon. That SAL is going to be one pretty piece - love the linen.
Great progress on both of your pieces.
I love how the colours for the L*K piece just jump off the fabric. What nice progress on both pieces! Hope your eyes start to feel better soon.
Both your WIPs are lovely but I have to admit that I love the SAL! It just gorgeous!
