It's that time of year - here is a Valentine stitch!
Design - "Love"
Designer - Bent Creek
Fabric - 30 count R & R Flax Field
Started - 6 February 1999
Completed - 22 February 1999
For all of you suffering from a surfeit of ice, and snow, and wind, and single-digit temperatures, in Oregon, there is a clear sign of Spring-to-come.
I set out this primrose in late November (it was in a clay pot all spring/summer/fall) to see if it would settle in. As you can see, it appears to be quite content!
The rest of my Outdoor Wednesday post is a "Paean to Feline Comfort".
Solomon the Fatigued
Solomon the Exhausted
Solomon the Bone-Weary
Solomon the Marathon Sleeper
Parvati the Prostrate
If you are in the midst of the storm; a cup of hot chocolate, a good book, and a warm cat is all it takes to find peace and comfort. Stay safe!
I am a big fan of hearts, especially for Valentine's Day. As much as I love cross stitch I never really found a sampler I loved until now. Very nice!
ReplyDeleteOh what a pretty piece. The Valentine finish is beautiful. Love the photos of the sleeping kitty. :) Looks so peaceful. And from icy, snowy New York thank you for the primrose. :)
