And the Winner is...

Heart of America!

LHN "Heart of America"
Heart of America stitched on 32 ct. Vintage Examplar using Crescent Colours.

This is what I got done last night while dh was watching UFC. I don't understand why he likes it. Well, I guess I partly can understand, but when there's blood, I can't stand to watch it. So stitching is a good thing to do while it's on. It's definitely a man thing.

Well, Matthew is being fussy, so I'd better go! Write later! Thank you again for all your kind comments!!!

  1. What a great start! Welcome to my world where the tv is concerned. My DH likes Law & Order and Sci Fi and it just all bores me! It has to be a guy thing I think too! So glad we have stitching to keep us interested! This is going to be so pretty! I may have to get mine out eventually too. You inspire me! Debby :)

  3. Awww see somehow I thought you'd start with the Shepherd Bush Family one since you have everyone together this week, but your decision is also a good one as I love this pattern and eagerly await your progress photos of it.

    Stitch on!

  7. So funny, my husband was watching the same thing! I called Mom and told her to put it on, because my little brother used to play with Kenny Florian! I usually come and play on the computer, I hate UFC! :)
    You are a talented stitcher Nicole!

  12. I think your blog is my favorite - you do such amazing work and your pictures make me drool every time.

    I've actually been looking at a Nikon D40 since reading your blog. You're doing a great job selling them! :o)

  13. I agree with Courtney about your camera, Nicole. It takes fantastic shots! Plus I think you get such good lighting situations. Lighting in my place is a MAJOR problem.

    It's interesting how you usually start with borders. Do you find this easiest? I'm always afraid I'll be a stitch out and won't realise until I'm half way through the piece. Heart Of America will stitch up great, I just know it.
