Samira's Grow Some Love

Post by Samira »

Hey guys,

I really am sorry that I've been inactive for quite some time.
The reason is that we (my fiancé and our baby girl) finally moved to our own home.
Before we lived at his mother's place and the last few days before the move at my mom's place.

2 Days ago we also finally received our internet, and the days without I've started with a new CS.

It's called 'Grow some love' by Kirsten Schmidt, it's one of her freebies.
Anywho this is my start:

Not sure when I will cross stitch again, we still have plenty left to do in our home :)

Thanks everyone for your kind words.
It feels great to have our own home.
No more living according other people their rules.. :D

I done a little stitching yeterday again. Picture will follow soon when I've done a bit more. Couldn't do much because when I started to stitch, a few minutes later our baby girl woke up.. And decided not wanting to sleep for several hours.

The chart only contains 4 colors; DMC 3348, DMC 3853, DMC 761 & DMC 760.
you can find the chart here for those who are interested: http://kissycross.twoday.net/" target="_blank
you can find over there more freebies. :)

And yeah we're settling quite well..
Our baby girl became a much happier baby ever since we live on our own.
Before she cried almost all day long, and nothing helped to get her calm & happy again.
Not so weird honestly... The situation we lived in was quite stressful, and lots of fights and such.. :O
