A Small Finish


I have a new finish! It has some specialty stitches in it. I really enjoyed stitching this one.
This is Plum Berry Sampler by Bent Creek.
Stitched on 28 count evenweave.

Some Finished Cross Stitch

I thought perhaps I should post some pictures of my finished pieces of cross stitch.
Some old, some new...
:)
I love cross stitching, it is so enjoyable!

A New Year

A New Year has begun, 2008. Where does the time go?
It is almost a year since my Father passed away. February 10, 2007, he left this earth forever. He remains in my heart, but will be missed so very much. I remember how close we used to be many years ago. I was Daddy's girl. I believe that my personality is very close to his. He was always happy. I always thought he was amazing..able to fix anything, and was very clever. In my eyes, he was a great man.
I always called him Papa Bear. It is still hard to believe he is truly gone forever.

I am hoping for better things this year. I finally found a job, and I am enjoying it so far.


Framed pieces

I finally framed some of my needlework pieces. I just love how they turned out!
