Exchanges Sent & Received and one finish framed!

I wanted to share a couple of exchanges with you & also my framed Plum Street's "Love Notes" - I'll show you that first!

The frame is from Eastside, called Old Roses in the "red" color. It's really very pretty. The piece is stitched on 32 ct Sand Belfast with GAST. I think it turned out pretty!



Next is the Spring Seasonal Exchange from Becky SC. She stitched Just Nan's new "Dewdrop" for me & left off the pink eggs & flowers, and I must say, it looks wonderful! We both had that idea as I had planned to stitch it that way for myself one of these days! lol Isn't it cute?


And these are the other goodies she included with it. The rabbit figures are cute as can be. I'm so ready for spring! Thanks again Becky!


This is the ornament I sent to Cathy last week in our ornament exchagne group. I was running way behind.... this is January's ornie! Oops! It's from one of the new Blackbird Designs stocking books, stitched over 1 on 25 ct. It came out small, but I think it's cute & I sure hope Cathy likes it! I hope to do more of these soon.



I haven't stitched at all since the weekend & it wasn't much then. I have been hurting again for almost a week now. I hope to get back to it soon. It's Wednesday so that means Quaker Vitures SAL day, but I'm not quite up to it I don't think. SOON.... very soon!

Our friend Terry is still in the hospital, but doing a bit better. Hopefully she will be back home & online soon & can tell you all about her experience. Please continue to keep her in your prayers or send good thoughts her way. We want her to be stitching with us for many, many years to come!

Thanks for stopping by & happy stitching!

Beautiful job on Love Notes! I have been debating ordering this chart for awhile now. I just ordered Blackbird Designs' January stockings so will have to do those first. Very exciting to see one of those stockings stitched up. Nice work!
