ditto! Very nice Peggy. On an unrelated note (thread hijack alert!) A Song for Arbonne finally made it (back) to the top of my reading list last week and I finished it last night. It is really good and I greatly enjoyed it. Thanks for thinking of me and sending a copy. I went and got a few more of his from the library today. If they're as good, I'll likely read all that he's written. I'll admit also that I would have *never* picked this up on my own, and that I put it down at the bottom of my reading list after first reading the prologue a month or more back. Once I started the second time and got into it a bit further however I was hooked. Thanks again! Hope all are doing fine, Dan The girls say 'hello' as well. |

Oh my! Stunning work Peggy. I need to upload some photos of a footstool I just finished. Now I am stitching the cutest bunny with a purple velvet jacket. |

thanks, guys! I really enjoyed doing this one. I'm pretty darn proud of it considering it is my own design and there are some unique stitches in it. I must be healing considering I am getting creative again. I still have a very short attention span so big projects are out. added edit: I should mention this poject only measures 6" X 6". I hope you are all well. Aside to Dan: I was not able to get into all his books. I remember years ago reading a series about a tree. Silver tree? hanging tree? Cannot quite remember because it was years ago. Even so, I did like those. I just started reading Paul Murray Kendall's "Richard III" which apparently influenced Penman in "Sunne in Splendour". So far, it is excellent. Non-fiction truly can be more fascinating than fiction. Give your little women my bestest regards! I hope the littlest one is behaving herself! I catch her ever so often on facebook. She's truly precious. Edited by justme, May 11 2010, 03:49 PM.

Who is Avery? I love the colors. Also I think stitching is good for the worrying mind. It has been for me. |

Beautiful! Did you draw the design on the canvas before stitching it? |
