Feeling Better - a surprise

Post by rcperryls »

I was RAKed yesterday by Tiffany with this adorable mini (Vanessa is stitching the full size one) Image. I had it in my wish list and now I have it. It's perfect. Y'all have been so nice and caring and generous. Marilyn (stitchin kitty) wanted to send me some specialty threads and I so appreciated it. When I tell friends about this forum, they are so surprised because so many have had such different experiences, I guess, with some of the other forums they have been on. Stitchers are really special and Crossstitch Forum stitchers are the best of all.

I probably should start this one after I finish the SAL piece, as it is so appropriate. Thank you

Tiffany is such a sweetie - and how appropriate after your ordeal over the last few days! Can't wait to see your start on it - will be interesting to compare your mini with Vanessa's full size.

Yipppeee! another feeling better stitcher. I will too be interested to see how the mini compares to the full size version. Not that I have completed much of mine yet. I will have to speed up now!

I think it will be neat to see the differences too. I am planning on starting it as my next new start after finishing Bookend Kitties (I think I already said that). Have to get fabric first and I will probably not be getting to the LNS for at least a few weeks. Depending on how I look, more than anything else. I have this feeling though that you will be far far ahead of me in the stitching, even though you have way more to stitch than me. And not because you started first, but because of your amazing speed.
