Wedding Sampler is done!



The Wedding bells Sampler
designed by: Lesley Teare
featured at Cross Stitch Crazy, June 2006
14ct Aida
DMC threads

I am glad this is finished, i can move on to other projects which is very slow...Bright and sunny here last days so been out for walks and try to work in the garden.



When i went to pick up hubby last wednesday, we took another route back to the ferry, i had expected to see field of Tulips but had seen mostly fields of hyacinths and Daffodils. Can't get closer to get pictures. I think we have some flower fields here too on the island, hope to drive around later this week before it's all over.
Chris with a wet hair as he just out from the shower after the football game. With all the catching up for football games and at the same time for Chris guitar lesson we had ask the other players if they will have the game earlier so Chris can join the group and be able to attend his guitar lesson too afterwards. We would rather not skip the guitar lesson as that is more expensive than the games.
Practising here early this evening. He started taking the lesson last September with Acoustic guitar and this year he's allowed to use electric guitar. He likes it though not wanted to sing, which is really a pity....

Thank you all so much for your continued visits on my blog and for taking the time to leave me a comment. They mean so much to me! I hope you are all having a wonderful weekend!!

Love the floral pictures!! We just got back from a very cold & windy walk. It is only in the low to mid 50's & the wind is awful.

Loved seeing the pretty picture of you with tulips in the backgroud. Such a lovely photo.
Glad to hear your son is enjoying playing the guitar. Ukuleles are very popular here at the moment.

The wedding sampler came out wonderfully!!! Your friends are going to cherish it forever. Love all your pictures of the flowers and your son too! My son likes playing the guitar too, and took lessons for a while, but then he started getting massive amounts of homework, and the guitar sits and collects dust.
