Maybe check for petit point patterns. IIRC, those are all stitched over

Excellent idea...you know, to stitch something which was DESIGNED to be stitched 1 over 1. I'm somewhat concerned that never crossed my mind.

LOLOL!!!

I am *so* close to finishing my Victorian house...about a 3"x3" area left.


Did you finish? I'd love to see it!

No, still have probably another week before it's done...down to about a
2x2 area now. I only get to stitch on it for maybe a 1/2 hour each day.

I've been a bit delayed on my Maple Leaf as we had some storm damage in our yard over here (windstorm which took down a big tree).

Haven't the winds been *awful* this year??? Making up for the lack of
winds last year, I guess!

Now it's Halloween and I'm going trick or treating with my 6 yr old tonight.

I miss those days!!! We live out in the country and haven't had any
t-or-t'rs for about 5 years, since the one family's kids got too old.
We have one family with 3 kids about a mile away but they usually go
into the nearest town to do it with their friends. Enjoy it while you
can!!!!

If worries can cure your sickness, prolong your life, or replace
happiness, then go ahead and worry! If they can't, why worry?

Enjoy every moment of your life...there is no second chance.
