Leap Year

First of all, I want to thank all of you who commented, text-ed and emailed me about Double Dee and her gorgeous frame!!!!  WOWZA!!!!  I am so excited that I can hardly handle it :)  25 fantastic comments on her is a record I think!!!!  Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I wanted to also post today because it is the 29th of February and how often can we post on this day?? So here goes!
I have been working on Weeping Tree the last few days, and making some good progress.
I decided to wait to stitch the house last, I am not sure why, but I wanted to get all the other stitching done first, the top is done, just have to add my initials, (but that will be last for sure) and the white border is done.  The bottom row is done so I can see a visual of size-- which I love doing and helps me fill in the rest from there. 
I love the hand dyed silk thread for this piece, it just makes it so much more special for me to see all that great color!  (Yes, I did say color-- for those that know me, I am sure you are shocked!!  LOL)  Each night I get a bit further, and the piece becomes more beautiful than the night before.  Crazy I know!  I am already thinking about what is going to be next up from the WIPs, so many options!!!!!!!
I hope all of you enjoy the rest of your day!!!! Happy stitching on this extra day :)

  11. Love this design and have had it to stitch for awhile. Seeing yours makes me want to pull it out of its hiding place.

    The green/blue vine is a gorgeous color!
