I love it when I have a finish to share because it just doesn't seem to happen very much anymore.  If you haven't been to the Cross Eyed Cricket website lately you might want to check it out.  She has a new freebie and another one that you can substitute in the booklet  "Playing with Jax".  I decided to do it alone and make an ornament out of it.  I used the fibers she called for but I finished it a little different.  For one thing I used a bluish linen that has a metallic thread going thru it and on the edges I used a rick rack in light blue with a silver edging on it.  The bow was made from 2 different silk ribbons that I had and they matched the overdyed silk leaves in the design pretty good.  I really like how it turned out.

I've started a new project called "Let It Bee" by The Drawn Thread and I had forgotten how much fun Cynthia's designs can be to stitch.  I'm stitching it on a 30ct Linen using 100/3 Au Ver A Soie silks.

Little Evelyn's Welcome to the World party was this past weekend and she was dressed up just waiting to see and meet everyone.  

I'm glad you stopped by to see what was going on in my little corner of the world.   I love and appreciate all of my followers and always pray that everything is okay in your corner.
