Suds or Fabric

I made this for my girlfriend Dorothy, who loves to Quilt as much as I love to cross stitch. The pattern came from: Vee at www.veeandco.com. I will give it to her when we take our little trip to The Lake of The Ozarks, MO this weekend. I hope the colors will be nice, this is my favorite time of the year! Plus I do miss our visit with our friends! I loved this charm! some of the charms that I added to the finish!
News on the Home front!
My son and DIL will be having a new baby to go along with their new house! New baby will here in June. We are praying for a healthy baby with no heart problems like Isabella. They move into their new house Halloween weekend!
Stitching
I did start my personal sampler over! I am very happy with the fabric and colors now! This is a picture of what the sampler will look like when I get it finished, I talked to the designer and she told me that she will be able to add the new baby! I am happy about that! The Personal Sampler is from Stephaine at www.nouveauencore.com
This is how far I got after I started over. Here is a list of the colors I will be using. The leaves are " Weeks Dye Works" Adobe Top of Acorns is DMC 111 The botton is DMC 300 The inside is DMC 400 some backstitching in DMC 301 The Fabric is M.C.G. 32 ct Linen Soft Natural worked over 2 the finish size will be 30 x30. This has to be finished by my 40th Wedding Anniversary! I better get my butt in gear and start working on this. I only did one other project in Linen, a very small piece, so I hope I started this one on the correct thread, if not I am not going to start over again!
