I really wasn't planning on posting today......but I finished this sampler yesterday and framed it this morning. And. I. Just. Can't. Help. Myself! You'd think I was participating in NaBloPoMo, but I'm not.
My Love For You Samplerfabric: 30ct white Irish Linen
fibers: DMC
I stitched this for my children and personalized it with their initials at the bottom. I thought of adding their birthdates, but then decided against it.
I found this frame at Hobby Lobby. On sale of course (50%) off. I actually bought the frame while I was still stitching this. And I didn't have the sampler with me. I think it worked out perfectly :)
And another photo because I love this so much. Oh, right, I love the kids that much too, lol ;) And the kiddos, bless them, love it too and are looking forward to seeing it on the wall when they get home from school :)
I'm working on a really fun little project...something from my new stash :) Stay tuned, I may just have to post tomorrow too, LOL! Have a great day and thanks for stopping by :)
That is just the sweetest! And a great find for the frame as well. It really calls out for group hug!
