july 23 - TUSAL & a finish!

I think I am a day late with this posting...sorry! My little jar is getting fuller with lots of snippets this month from two samplers I worked on, along with some thread tags and bits of fabric.


And here is a photo of "Lo, How a Rose" finally finished and just in the nick of time. The book is on its way back to the New Jersey library that was kind enough to loan it to me. The design is from Bright Needle, and the book is one of the BH & G Cross-Stitch Christmas series - "Celebrations in Stitches".I stitched this with the Weeks threads listed and really like the softness of the colors.

Thanks for visiting!

  7. Hi Lynda,

    I like the name of your blog! Love the little person you are using for your picture. How cute is that! I also like baseball but the Boston Red Sox.

    Give my blog a peek.

  8. Lo How a Rose turned out great! Isn't Interlibrary Loan great? I could have sent you the book from our library...Illinois would have been a little closer...!
