Another Exchange Sent....


Here is the exchange I sent to Rosalie (no blog) via a private exchange that 4 of us did last year. I was really late sending it, but I hope she will feel it's worth the wait. As you can see from the pic, I stitched LHN's Traveling stitcher but I made a couple of changes to it. I do hope Rosalie likes it. I know it was delivered to her today but I haven't heard from her, so I will just have to keep my fingers crossed that she is happy with her exchange pieces.
I haven't stitched much the past couple of days. My niece came over yesterday & was with us until supper time. We really enjoyed the day. Today after the work was done, we ran to get a few groceries & then went swimming with my niece & sister & enjoyed the afternoon. It wasn't even 90 today & the water was only 86, which was COLD compared to the 92 & 93 it was a week ago, and that's in the deep end of the pool! It was fun though & we hope to go back tomorrow afternoon. I just hope it's a tad warmer. We have plans for the weekend so I'm playing hookey again... I'm sure I can catch up on Monday! :-)

Have a great weekend & happy stitching!

It's lovely Amy - I have seen so many people stitching this and I am envious! I haven't yet picked up this pattern (trying to economize). I'm sure your exchange partner will love it - who wouldn't???
