It's hot this afternoon--too hot to be in the yard, so I decided to frame the garden cross stitch I worked on this winter. I know, cross stitch is not a craft many people do anymore, but I love to cross stitch and saw this pattern and thought it would be a nice project for me as I waited
patiently for spring.
I saw this little stitchery at a store in Waxahachie and thought it would look nice hanging with my
garden
"Welcome"
I hung both of them in the entry hall right above my garden hat.
Not a very good picture, but they do look good against the yellow entry wall.
It's a nice way to say "welcome"--to my home and to my garden!

I love your cross stitch and displaying it as a welcome is wonderful!
Thanks Liz. It adds a touch of homey whimsy--just the thing I love!
Those are beautiful. You do a wonderful job of cross stitch!!!!
That's something new. I wish I could come home and see it for myself. And while I was there, you and dad could fix a good meal that we could eat outdoors!
Thanks Cindee. I really enjoyed working on this piece.
And to my "favorite daughter"--
Yes, come home and we will grill out on the patio--anything you want! (homemade ice cream for dessert?) : )
You find your pleasure in both of your gardens. Way to go.
