IN STITCHES

A year ago I was busy doing cross stitch in a fun Mystery Valentine Stitch Along project (SAL) with Pam Kellogg and I must admit I really miss it. I completed the Valentine project shortly after Valentine's Day and have my lovely roses and heart picture framed. Then I also joined Pam's Mystery Spring SAL of a cute little robin sitting prettily in a nest of flowers. Please check out Pam's Etsy site as I see she has both mystery cross stitch patterns featured:

and you can see my WIP at Flikr here:

A bird in a nest always makes me think of spring and oh how the cold temperature (minus 25 Celsius this morning) makes me yearn for Spring to come early. I really do not like winter at all even though I have all these wonderful hobbies that keep me working. I have been sewing quilt blocks lately but i feel a need to start hand work again.
