oppie finds and cross stitch galore............

I found this frame today as an oppie find and had done this cross-stitch on the weekend I created my own pattern!   Don't you just love the "Union Jack".

                       Here are my cards that I have created!!! I am pretty proud of them .....

Look at this Shakespeare book that I found at the local RSPCA, isn't it just the sweetest book......

                         Just look at the spine of the book too, it's in such good condition............


I have sure been busy with my rekindled love of cross-stitch!!! I am just loving how you can create so many adorable pieces with the craft :)
                      The pieces below will feature in my Etsy store :)


                      Below is my latest Friendship ring off Tom, it's a Claddagh Ring which is an Irish Tradition in Tom's family, I just love it, the hands hold the heart, the inside reads " Love, Loyaylty, friendship"

                Below is our Willow statue that represents "together", I thought it would make a lovely new addition to our home :)
Here Tommy is holding the statue

  3. Hi Kate! You know how to find all the good stuff at the thrift stores. :-) Love your new cards. I know it took a lot of searching to find the right paper, and then your cross-stitch looks so lovely on them--nice job! I sent you an email on Etsy but haven't heard anything back from you. Perhaps it got lost. My email is plush (at) plushpussycat.com. Maybe that will work! I miss our chats! :-)
