Celebrating my 59th Mother’s Day. Today I will, sew, stitch, watch a movie. No plans to cook, though Mr Busy may grill some burgers. Next weekend family will be here, then I will cook, and eat, and hug on my daughter, grandkids and a couple of littles!
I stitched on my Woven Wreath May design on Thursday stitch group. I’ve got a few more sprigs and the teacup and saucer left.
I’ll probably catch up on the temperature cross stitch and maybe, put some stitches in a Lizzie Kate Spring String!
The Temperature stitch is done through last Sunday. The Spring String is on some 18 ct Aida I had in my stash. It was ivory, I boiled it in some coffee and a tea that had orange rinds and some kind of reddish flowers in it. It was getting old, so used it up! I didn’t buy new floss. If I had the color indicated on the chart I used it, if I didn’t I chose a close color by looking at the picture .
Happy Mother’s Day to all mothers everywhere, especially in the US this day! Whether you bore children, or adopted children, or fostered, or helped raise someone else’s child. You are appreciated! If you have fur babies, and nieces or nephews, or classrooms full of other people’s kids, I applaud you. It takes all of us! It takes a village!
