A finish!

I had needed something simple and easy to stitch the last month or so and I finished it this past weekend. Dog Rules for People by Lizzie Kate. It is stitched on 32 ct. lambswool linen with the WDW and CC threads that came with it.


I'm not sure how I'm going to finish it. A pillow or totebag? I may frame it and give it to my youngest son and his family - they now have 7 dogs and 2 of them are pregnant!

My oldest grandson, Jack, turned 7 in March and his mom had a surprise birthday party for him this past Sunday. This is Jack hanging from his Uncle Sean's arm. So funny!

I tried to get a picture of all 4 of my grandsons at once, but they were not cooperative.

I started a new project a couple days ago and will have some progress pictures soon. The Hoosier Stitchers are having their spring retreat starting today and I'm going down for the day on Saturday. Can't wait! It's supposed to be warm that day and I'm riding with a couple others that are going down just for the day. I'm ready for a day of stitching and fun!!

Eskie smiles,
