I stitched this lovely design on 32 count English Rose linen with the recommended DMC threads. The satin ribbon trim is a muted pinkish red, and the pearl head pins are bright pink. I used green velveteen for the backing fabric.
The collection includes ten pinkeeps. And, here they are.
I still need to find a nice basket or wood tray, but you get the idea. I'm going to miss doing this SAL. Guess I'll have to gather some small designs so I can keep making them. You can never have too many!
Happy weekend!

Nancy,
Congratulations on such a fantastic finish. I love to see your SAL pieces and this one is especially lovely. The finishing is so neat and all prettily co ordinated with unusual trimmings. Your little stack is simply stunning :>)

These pinkeeps are beautiful Nancy and you have done a wonderful job in the stitching and finishing, all so different. I wonder what she will have next year. I still put my little houses out each month, that she done a couple of years back.

How beautiful! I love the stacked picture - it's nice to see all the pins and ribbons! What a fun SAL to have been a part of.
Fabulous finishes!! I love the group photo and I'm sure you'll find a home (basket..) for them at some point. Show us when you do.

Another beautiful addition, Nancy! They look so pretty all stacked up in your picture. You've now got quiet a nice collection.

Nancy, Love Gretchen in her Halloween costumes!! Way too cute.
Your Santa SAL is coming along very nicely, I do like this last one with the Snowman.
Now for your pinkeeps - what a wonderful job you have done. As for a tray - Pier 1 has what looks like a nice tray for about $20.00 - check it out.
