Hi. I don't know if you can help me. I just received the chinese blessing cross stitch. I ordered it to do for my wedding, but I can't find any instructions that tell me what stitch to put where. What I do have tells me which color to put where. If you could e-mail me a copy of the instuctions I would be so grateful. My e-mail is youhoo@sasktel.net I hope you can help, Amanda on chinese blessing

Cheers

Well, here we are

Can you believe how quickly this year has passed by? I know I have a hard time with realizing that in just a few days it will be a brand new year. Imagine that, two years of this Challenge and we are still finishing off the unfinished goodies. One thing is for sure, this year I did not attend to my UFO's as hoped and for that I am sad, however I was able to spend a good first 4 months of 2012 working on two pages of Xmas from HAED and another two pages from Northern Tranquility of Shinysuns. From there I worked up a Wedding Row from Bent Creek and then an "off the top" wedding sampler for special friends,  stitched on CONNECTICUT (M M Waldock Designs (formerly Oberlin Samplers)), stitched up 4 Friendship, the Trilogy from Heart in Hand for the Four from Forest. On July first, I began Regal (the eagle) for my Leroy's birthday/pc free day, many ornaments, a couple of birth samplers with an "off the top" safari theme, two Christmas samplers and finished off a ton of Christmas ornaments. *and I am sure to have forgotten one or two other little goodies along the way! Not bad for loosing that lov'n feeling half way through the year. Funny how the health of a loved one will do that eh?!

My intentions for 2013 are to become more diligent with stitching on some of the golden oldies in my stash pile and the fact that so far, I don't have any weddings to attend to or other such special occasions, those intentions may come into an honest action moving forward. I do believe that Northern Tranquillity will be on the top of that pile again.
 
So, with all of this said and done I truly hope everyone has made a dent in their own piles of UFO's and will join us again in the new year with another list of "to~do's"...

Merry Christmas 2012

Cheers to Happiness, Health and Love in 2013

 

As always,,, Keep an eye for threads & be always in stitches
