I know it's been awhile. Because of shoulder and neck pain I haven't stitched in a long time. Finally I picked this piece up and it took a while. I can only stitch so much a day. The back stitching drove me crazy but I finished it. My next piece has no backstitching! I'm trying to use up my scrap material so the next few pieces may be small we'll see. Today my Great niece, Madyson turns 13. So hard to believe she's a teenager. My niece and her husband adopted her on Feb. 29 6 years ago. She's been a blessing and joy to our family. Winter came late this year but once it came it came with a vengence. Although we haven't had it as bad as some areas. The older I get the more I hate winter. Well until next time.....Happy Stitching!
