LABOR OF LOVE

"Born to Shop, forced to Work"
"If it wasn't for the Last Minute Nothing Would be Done"
I finally got my two small counted Cross stitch pictures finished.  Donna and I are going to use them as part of the gifts we will be bringing for our Secret person for our Quilting Retreat in May. I did all the cross stitch so now Donna has to do her part and make them into little pillows or something like that with maybe lace around the sides.  Next year I am going to think of something that is not as much work.  We will be bringing other items for our daily gifts for the Retreat.  We are each supposed to bring one handmade gift.  Donna and I got that started last year. Everyone thought it was nice to bring a homemade gift so now we are supposed to each bring something homemade.

 I am going to give myself a little rest from counted cross stitch and then I will work on the Wolf picture.  I just opened it today and got the threads ready. I have really been looking forward to doing this picture.  I am not particularly interested in wolves but this picture just caught my eye.
