My sister has asked me to stitch another version of the birth sampler I did for her birthday for a friend of hers. Friend Y had a baby girl this week - rather unexpected, as she'd been told at her scans it was almost certainly a boy! So, Y has nothing very pretty and my sister thought that this sampler would be a start :o) However, the baby doesn't have a name as yet either so I'm just going to work the border for now...
I've been working on a crewel piece which is a UFO and I'm really not liking it - I've gone completely off the design and I'm only finishing it because I'm being stubborn! I was hoping to give it to my mum or sis, but they don't like it either - my dad turned his nose up too... I'm telling myself it's character building and also I need the practice - I can do crewel work, but I don't do much of it.

It's a very pretty piece. I love the colors. :) Good luck on finishing your crewel UFO. You can do it! ;-) "Character building", LOL, that's what I told myself when I started working on Mime again after *many* years of being in storage.

I'd love to see pics of the crewel work. Lovely sampler too. xx
