For many months now,
my evenings have been taken with
hand stitching...
I'm continuing to work on
by Beth Twist from Heartstring Samplery.
I can at finally see an "end" to this very large project.
(I started it on February 8, 2016,
and have worked on it continually,
in my free time.)

If you live local to Lancaster County, PA...
I purchased the linen and all of the
hand dyed threads at

and the shop is well stocked.)
Loving this Honeybee motif !

I love that you can see the end. You are almost there!! It is just beautiful Rose. I started back at it today. I do love that little bee hive. I love your quote too. How nice to have a local shop to sell those threads. Not a single shop here in my town. Have a great week.
