Hooked on Stitches Blogoversary Giveaway

A blog I discovered through Golden Angel Works is having a blogoversary giveaway of a lovely stitching by the owner of the blog Hooked on Stitches. Her name is Angela and she is giving away a choice of three different finishing techniques for a stiched piece by her if you follow her blog. Here is a picture of one of the finishing techniques you can choose:


It's a box. I think by far this is my favorite finishing technique she does out of the 3 she shows. Don't get me wrong I like the pillows and the flat-folds too, but there's something about having a box to put your stitching stuff in or a secret treasure. :-)

Scissors Fob Received in England

My Cross Stitch Forums Exchange Receiver received her fob on April 6th. I'm glad it arrived safely and intact there relatively quickly from the states :-). Here is a picture of the fob I sent:

Included in the package was a light yellow 28 Ct Jobelan and a Bunny cross stitch kit. I did the fob in Assisi and used an overdyed silk from Caron. I am enjoying my time as a member of the Cross Stitch Forums.

I'm sorry I'm late in posting this, but you must know that I've been sicker than a dog the last few weeks. Now I'm suffering from laryngitis and anyone I talk to on the phone now can distingush me from my family, yay, I think, lol.

Keep on Stitchin'....
