Just a quick post to show my finished Mystery Sampler back from the framer's.  Although I finished the stitching last year, I just finally broke down and took 5 items to be framed, this being one of them.  It is spectacular!
Thanks for looking!

Off to the Fair..

I got my Sampler back from the framer and now it's off to the Colorado State Fair, I really enjoyed stitching this sampler, sorry about the glare. Stupid flash..lol

Finished...Finally!!

I was able to finally finish my Sampler tonight...I'm taking it to Hobby Lobby tomorrow and hopefully they'll have the frame I have in mind. Then it's going to the Colorado State Fair..:) Wish me luck...This was such a fun pattern to stitch and I may stitch it again for my mom..

Finished and at the frame shop

I finished it last night and dropped off at the frame shop this morning. I cannot wait to get it back. The frame we picked out is beautiful. This has been fun.

Keep on stitching. P.J.

Picked it back up..

I was going thru my ever growing pile of WIPs and came across this...I've been stitching on it for a few days now; I want to get it done in time to enter in the Colorado State Fair; I wanted to do that last year and didn't make the deadline; since working on it I now know why I put it down!!! LEAVES!!! There are so many darn leaves...LOL I only have about 10 to go..but sure loving the picture can't wait to get it done..I have more done than is on the picture I will post another picture when I get these leaves done...hopefully tomorrow; gotta work today..

Two Birds

Well I have been slowly gaining ground on this project and still loving every stitch of it. Here are a few progress pictures. I generally work on this during my lunch break at work. Saving the weekend stitching for my over one project on 32ct. Anyway for those out there still working on yours, keep on stitiching. :-)

Leaves, leaves and more leaves.

 The tree is done!

Two birds in the tree with some ABCs 

I am excited to get to Part III, I have decided to add the initials for my husband, my daughter and myself in the grass in place of the flowers. I thought of it when I realized there were three birds. The three of us! Can't wait to get started on that section.

Keep on stitching, P.J.

THE END RESULT

A lovely sampler to stitch, I did prefer the grass without the flowers so I let the sheep eat them ;))
