I am a very fortunate person as of 30 years ago this month I received as a wedding gift this sampler from my SNL Jayne.This was my first piece of cross stitch and it has hung on my wall all that time. I have always loved this one and like how the S's go around the border and my birds at the bottom. I was introduced to cross stitch by Jayne and Marjorie and I did a few pieces in the beginning but then I had 2 wonderful kids. Cross stitch got put on the back burners for a few years but I have picked it up again lately. The kids have moved on with their lives and I have more time on my hands as I an not employed right now. I enjoy nothing more than sitting on the front porch and stitching. I have a great hubby who has no problem with me stitching all my spare time as he had a mother (Marjorie) who did this also.
I feel very fortunate that I have a great SNL who helps me with all my cross stitching questions and we have enjoyed many years of laughter and fun. I'm also very happy that I have been married to a great guy for the last 30 years who is very understanding and loving .So Below is a picture of my sampler from a special SNL.
Well off to my porch now.
and now I leave you with an inch to stitch
