I have been working sporadically on the same cross-stitch project for TEN years & I finally finished this week. Since watching Astros baseball on TV inspires me to do something useful with my hands, I'm very grateful they made it to the World Series, giving me the extra time I needed.
Now I need a new project - maybe I should teach myself to knit...
I'm taking this to the frame shop this afternoon. I think it will go perfectly in the dining room across from the medieval-looking brass rubbing Mom bought for me on her trip to London in '92.
