This looks great!

Looking great!

Thanks for all the encouragement. Haven't done much on this lately -- been busy with creating a newsletter for my other interest: Taoist Tai Chi. Just joined the local club a year ago and recommend it highly. Good for improving balance, circulation, flexibility and strength. And I'm sure all those good things help my stitching too . . .

OK, so I've been postponing finishing this. . . . But I have a good reason: just stitched a small project from Joan Elloitt's "Bewitching Cross Stitch" book. I'll probably frame it rather than make a cushion -- and I think I'll make an exception and keep it for myself!

That's pretty, I like that

Just noticed that I missed a stitich, so will fix it. Although I remember reading that early quilters always made one mistake 'on purpose', because only God is perfect. Hmmmm . . .
Interesting bit of history!

Well now you've got me looking for the missed stitch.

I have my serendipity mat on my kitchen table and I keep looking to see if I made a mistake

This is really pretty, well done.
