Halfway
I hope that everyone had a wonderful Valentines day!! I did, a nice quiet romantic evening at home-- that included steak and lobster!! Yum :) Even a couple of romantic movies to boot. I even stitched some last night, well, I really got a lot of stitching done last night-- I know, very romantic right? LOL.
I was able to stitch 4 rows of the letters last night and I am happily done with the over one. I did stitch them in full cross-- super easy especially on 32ct burlap linen :) My Friend suggested I spice things up a bit and use a hand-dyed silk for the letters and I am thrilled with the turn out. It is just enough. Thank you!!!
So I have made the halfway hump and I look forward to finishing the row out in the next day or so. I cant believe I complained so much!!! LOL.
Stay tuned for more pics to come!!
