Oh How I Love Mail Art

The person I was stitching for received her envelope today, so I can share what I stitched for her.Our theme was Needlework.It was funny the Prairie Schooler I stitched on the front was the same design Meari stitched on her envelope.It was another fun exchange and all the girls followed through on their commitments..

I bet you are wondering about the weekly updates I was going to show every Monday on True Virtue.Well the truth is I have not been stitching on it much, so there really isn't much to show.Hopefully I will have an update soon.I know tomorrow I am going to be outside.Temperature is supposed to be in the low 60's and I will be hanging sheets and blankets on the line and enjoying some of that warm sun.

Monday Update

I finished stitching the tree on the left, redid the steps and started the tree on the right.I am happy with the little bit I got accomplished this week..



As I was going through my things I came across this piece I had stitched in 2010.It's time for me to go through my frames and gets this on the wall.I loved stitching this.the only thing I changed was the hair color on the girl.
The name is My love I give to thee by Barrick Samplers
