Beautiful work Kell! Great idea to post finishes here. Mario still needs some finishing, but here's the unframed work.

I was very strict with myself - I could only use stash I already had for the 15 projects I was starting. I absolutely stuck to that, but I may have to buy a couple more threads at some point for some of the larger projects, but the cost of those is negligable in comparison to what I might have spent if I didn't set that limit on myself - LOL!

Wow, you guys are fast! I've been working on Kell's absence sampler for longer than I'd like to admit to and am only just a couple stitches ahead of her. Great job all. :applesauce:
