I didn't know it would take so much time to find out my aunt and uncle's annivesary date. No one in their family knew. I even called my uncle and he wasn't sure. At my 2nd cousin's house warming, she asked and got me the date of their wedding. I was beginning to think I'd have to send it with just their names.
The sampler is from My Big Toe cross-stitch designs. It is stitched in 32-count cream Belfast linen with Gentle Art Sampler Threads (Mountain Mist & Raven). The pattern comes with 4 color choices so you can use whichever one suits you -- or the recipients.
I received this on Wednesday and worked on it this weekend. Repeating motifs give me trouble because I get off track. That meant ripping out stitches and doing it again. I should have been finished, but at least I've made progress.
