I am indeed still working on my cross stitching and enjoying it, but wanted to get this chair all fixed up as a house warming gift to a very special friend. Finished it this morning with two coats of paste wax. I did stress the wood here and there by sanding or scraping some of the paint off before I put the MinWax stain on it. I enjoyed the project.
Back to my stitching this afternoon. Finished another motif on the "Quaker Diamonds" and my sewing room is nice and bright. It's a beautiful sunny day with a temperature of 59 at this time. Here's the latest finished motif.
I am also awaiting some beautiful yarn to make a shawl. I'll give out more information on this as time goes on, but if anyone wants a sneak preview, you can to to http://quietlystitching.blogspot.com/ About half way down the page you'll see a beautiful crocheted shawl. I'll be using the same yarn for mine. Hazel has done a beautiful job on hers for sure.
I will let ya'll go for the time being. Love you all, and until next time please stay warm and be well. Don't forget to "feel the colors".
