Saturday Sparks Link Party 614

Welcome to Saturday Sparks 614! 

 Starting off todays party with a peak at my latest WIP (work in progress)!


I am still head over heals in love with all things hand embroidery.

This latest design has been a challenge, but I am pleased with my progress so far.

I am learning something with each new stitchery and for this, I am thankful.

    1. Thanks, Pam! This design is so pretty, that I couldn't resist trying it. It's a bit advanced for my skill level , but I'm enjoying it just the same. I am not the mend, slowly but surely. I have to keep reminding myself that slow and steady wins the race. Wishing you a beautiful week ~ Suzanne.

  6. Your needle work reminds me of my grandmother. She did lots of needle crafts over my lifetime. She would put her work into frames, made pillows, embroidered on table clothes. I did not know what to do with all of them. My mother took the work out of the frames, took apart the pillows and made me a quilt with all of my grandmother's needle work. It's a favorite of mine. I have this quilt on display and can appreciate it for many reasons. My grandmother and mother have hand crafted this very special memory for me! Thank you for sharing your needle work with us!
    I linked up with #44. Thank you for hosting this wonderful party. Have a fun week ahead!
