Tea and Stitching


When I want to ease into my mornings, I choose a hot cuppa tea, quiet prayer and gentle stitching. Today, the windows are wide open. I did a bit of cleaning. There's a cool breeze coming off the ocean. Since my home is small, tidying up is easy. The only thing I long for is hardwood floors. Maybe someday. I'll probably never give up my love of real wood floors and French chandeliers.

Hearts, Roses And Vintage Engagement Rings




I just finished stitching some hearts in a variety of Valentine's Day colors. Hearts and roses are some of my favorite things to stitch. 

The counted cross stitch charts for the hearts can be found in A Rainbow of Stitches. It's a great book filled with many fun cross stitch charts and embroidery patterns.
