Lovely stitchery

A while back Gail sent me this lovely stitchery, this morning I finally got around to framing it. I consider myself very lucky as she did this one at a quilting weekend and as she is a lover of blue did herself a blue one. I am not sure where I will hang it. I do know that when I get my stitching room it will be hung in there. Thank you Gail I love it.
I have been in a bit of a creative slump so nothing of my own to show I did post off my valentines swap last week but it hasn't arrived yet will post some photos of it when it arrives in Canberra.
It is another hot day here today we haven't had rain in such a long time I have forgotten what it looks like.

I have carrier bags of my stiching waiting to be framed, but it's so expensive to get done.

How clever are you to frame that yourself. It's lovely, I hope you find somewhere to hang it and enjoy it. Hope it rains soon - here and there!!

Mine is not yet finished- maybe ill get it out tonight...
It rained all day today and the kids at school could not go out to play so they were restless- but we kept reminding ourselves that we needed the rain (as we were all pulling our hair out with restless kids!!) Hope you get some soon!
