Well, I thought I better post here so no one would think this was an abandoned site.  Am doing much better this summer health wise, and am teaching myself to thread paint from Trish Burr's wonderful books as well as working on stitching designs from two of my other favorite cross stitch designers.  I am doing a SEBA SAL and two Chatelaine patterns.
To any of my friends that are reading this, thank you for following this blog and being my friend.  God has really shown me how much of a blessing that friends are.  Would love to chat with any of you in an e-mail

In Christ,

Well... am posting here a bit. At least my neck and shoulders are slowly getting better. I want to get in and finish my sea theme pattern and do some more black work designing, but I still have to be patient. I can't do that yet... too much repetitive motion in designing.
