Tami's summer needlework


Here is what I have been doing this summer. I completed my second lesson in my Goldwork class which was two pieces that I had to stitch in silk. I also started in July doing a cross stitch guardian angel for my new Grandaughter. She is expected to arrive the end of October so I have to keep on task with this one.
I ahve my Lesson Three designed and the linen fabris framed and ready to start stitching this week.

Guess I finally got on. Too confusing for me. Wanted to comment that it's nice to have a big city shop in appearance to show all the great merchandise. Way to go Judy and her gang of workers. Lenore
