Scrimp or scrap

I save even the smallest pieces of linen.  It's the Stella in me.  I start projects in the corner that will leave the largest leftover.  This mini from the last project was barely enough to work this tiny sampler.  I saw it in a post, believe it was from a recent retreat, and very simple.  

I needed alphabet, this was a quick fix and quick stitch.  I've created small marking samplers just by using the letters on a old chart, and have also recreated from photos.  Like this tiny that I adore.

October is ending already.  Why does January through March take forever to leave?
