The Sparrow's Song


New's flash:  I LOVE COLOR !!!  I started to pull the charted floss from my stash and said out loud to the cats...I don't think so.  Then I pulled my Belle Soie and did my very own conversion.  Now I'm happy.  This design is being stitched on 29ct. Glenshee Natural linen with 1 strand of floss over 1 thread.  The finished design will be about 3.5 inches X 3.5 inches...darling.


The Sparrow's Song by The Goode Huswife.
His eye is on the sparrow and each tender thing that grows.

You are so fabulous with color! I love it too. I can just hear you saying, "I don't think so"...to the cats. It made me smile, and miss you so!

Absolutely. No dull colors for us. I was pulling floss for a new old sampler project, and while that old sampler is meant to be dull, I'm brightening it up, because I have to look at it, don't I?
