    Default It's Finished! A Present for My Mom

    Well, I FINALLY finished my Mom's mother's day present. Good thing she's patient! HA! Anyway, I took a Craftsy.com course for Stupendous Stitches and this is the result. Some things I would do differently now, but I learned a lot and I've decided that I do like it. At first I didn't like it at all, but kept going. There is a "secret" message in the piece so I included that picture too. Hopefully the pictures won't be huge...seems like folks are having problems uploading pictures lately.

    Anyway, without further ado, presenting the "Not So Mother's Day Present"

    Your stitching on it really makes it pop. I love it. I wish I were your mom.
