My husband came down with a cold/flu on Friday. He’s still got it. Yesterday I pushed 6 hours of working stitching to finish my magazine piece. So glad I did a stitch today my nosey won’t stop running. So I’ve chilled on the bed with my seat frame and stitched the April Milly out of …
Here’s my special wedding sampler, I stitched a a year ago. Again another design by Faby Reilly, specially commissioned for me. Thank you Faby 😁😁😁 Zoom in on your laptop touch pad/ tablet screen to see the intricate stitching details.

Sweet Heart Bookmark. Now what to stitch next. I’m tempted with the owl out next week in The World of Cross Stitching. Chart …
