One of the chores one must endure when returning home from vacation, is sorting through all the junk mail that filled the box while away. But it wasn't all junk or bills this time. I had a lovely handmade envelope containing my September BSA blocks. Yes, two of them from Becky. I just love the blue floral that she used! Thanks Becky.
Another envelope contained this beautiful cross stitch pattern from Liz at
Sunflower Fields Pattern Company. I had admired the piece on her blog, and she sent me the pattern! It's an original design, and I'll be stitching it up in the very near future.
If you don't know Liz, you should pay her a visit. She specializes in wool these days, and has some adorable designs.
I thought I'd throw in a picture of my afghan. I made good progress on it while traveling. I have to make good use of all those hours in the car!
Keep on stitching.....Sunny
