I found your blog through Paulette'...Hi, Margaret. I found your blog through Paulette's, and I have to say your stitching is just dreamy! I especially love your Advent sampler. WOW! It's absolutely gorgeous. I'm considering adding it to my mile-high-I-gotta-stitch-that-list. Just out of curiosity, about how long did you stitch on it?<BR/><BR/>I've also joined the mob of stitchers with the This Is The Day sampler. I received the magazine in the mail yesterday, and am pulling fabric and threads today. I really like the color changes you made from the charted version. Would it be too pushy of me to ask you for your list of colors that you used? I would be ever so grateful. :) <BR/><BR/>I have the same cactus you show in you blog header. I've had mine about two years, but it's never bloomed. Do you have to do anything special to them to make them bloom? <BR/><BR/>Anyhow, I hope you have a great weekend, and look forward to a Ruthie update. <BR/><BR/>Rebekka<BR/>rashulett@cableone.netRebekkahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17382509860518233101noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3789554235806283705.post-16060942858163788542009-04-03T12:26:00.000-07:002009-04-03T12:26:00.000-07:00A little birdie told me you had a blog, and I foun...A little birdie told me you had a blog, and I found you!
