My Personal Sampler

I want to have this finished by August of 2012, to give to my husband for our 40th Anniversary! It has something in it  that we both enjoy, from our wedding, the sign that was behind our car, to the sports that he likes, his love of trains, to my love of taking pictures, stitching and covered bridges, to our children, to our  grand daughters and Harley our dog. I am working this in 16ct Aida. I had other fabric in mind, but what I wanted and what I could afford was another story.  This is from: Nouveau Encore Designs  http://www.nouveauencore.com
This is what I have done so far.

This sampler is going to be stunning. What a fantastic tribute to your marriage and all that you and your husband have been to each other. I can't wait to see more progress.

Your other stitching is wonderful. I really like that wedding sampler too.

Welcome to Blogland!
That is an awesome sampler you are working on. I love all the personal elements. Good luck in stitching it-you have a few years to do so.
