:applesauce: Great job on the dogs Rose. It is adorable and :thumbsup: to you for persevering with the white on white. Don't blame you for not wanting to do that again, though.

My latest small projects

A birthday card for a friend. This is from the latest issue of Cross Stitch Gold.

Door Knob hangers for my best friend's grandchildren. Saw these in the dollar store made of thick foam and decided to give this a try. After I stitched the fronts, I decided to add the names on the back too, in foam letters.

Love everyone's finishes!! This is the first cross stitch I've finished in a while. It's a gift for my best friends' daughter that is leaving for college this weekend. She loves these sci fi movies.

I wish I could take credit for the design LOL, but actually I saw the pic on sprite stitch. I find so many cool patterns there.
