Hannah Beeby 1816
Only one motif left to stitch (in the bottom right hand corner) and then Miss Hannah is finished. I have yet to decide whether to hemstitch it before framing although I think this is the way I will go with it. I am going to miss stitching on this one!
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to all.

From San Francisco to the UK
Today I received the above from Valerie in San Francisco. It is a beautifully stitched and finished flatfold featuring the adorable Quaker Mouse. It is stitched on Lakeside Linens Vintage Light Examplar fabric with Caron Waterlilies Flagstone floss and the backing fabric and unusual trim co-ordinates perfectly. The goodie package she enclosed contains Samplers and Such "A Spot of Tea" pattern, two skeins of Glorina Poinsettia silk floss, a packet of French, size 28, needles, a magnetic notepad and some Comos flower seeds. Valerie also enclosed two chocolate bars which are not shown in the picture as they were a bit soft from the journey so I have put them in the fridge. Thank you Valerie - a wonderful exchange!
