HELLO AND THANKS....MY FIRST BLOG!

I am now a "blogger"thanks to my family for their support and in particular, to dear Patrick for his "more than patient help and advice." Love you all xoxo


Carol, your inspiration, friendship and encouragement helped to make this a reality!

Speaking of "firsts," this was my first finish that was not in a frame....so many years ago....I remember finishing it the night before the class as it "had to be completed" by class time. It was only 14 ct!!! Still, I had 4 children under the age of five..so stitching could NOT be one of my priorities at the time. I was happy with the results just the same...and it hangs as a reminder of "my happy, busy as a bee times" that I wouldn't trade for anything in the world!

More to come.
Happy stitching and thank you for visiting :)

  1. YAY!!! You did it, Mary--and it looks just wonderful. I'm so proud of you and proud to be your first follower. Your little bee cross stitch is precious--how special that you kept it all these years! And how sweet is that photo of you in your sidebar--you look like a little princess :)

    Looking forward to many more postings from you, my friend!
