It's embroidered, obviously, and I do love to do hand work. It's a nice change from standing at the cutting mat or wrestling with the sewing machine. Annabelle even took an interest yesterday and did a few stitches for me! That was a big shock because she usually starts snoring loudly whenever I talk about sewing. :-) I know, and she's only 8!

No, Santa wasn't there, she just yelled up to the ceiling. LOL

It's got the cutest projects...stitcheries, dish towels, table runners, etc. Anyway I was at Christmas Tree Shops (my favorite store) last week and they had this book for $1.69! On Amazon it's $27.95. I was so excited. So now I have my very own copy! Now I just have to decide what to make...hmmm...

I have a mason too! I was going to tell you that before. The buttons are lovely in jars. I love your stitching. I can see it is a grown up Sunbonnet Sue. Love her. Your stitching is really nice. You do a good job. I wish I was as good as you.
