. Hopefully all will go well with that and she will be past all this in the near future.About the actual design...it was a kit. The chart called for all brown back-stitching and brown/black lettering. I didn't like it- I thought it was too dull and too morose. So I decided to brighten it up by doing the back-stitch in colors appropriate to the flowers, leaves, and butterfly. Additionally I changed the lettering to colors from the flowers and did the center verse in 2 strands vs. 1 that was called for so it would stand out more. Then I personalized it from my friend
. I'm happy with the outcome and had fun working on this for the last 2 weeks.
Sorry in advance, the pics aren't the best - only had my cell phone to use as a camera.
