Elizabeth Mears Start

I've been working on Elizabeth all weekend. I was going to set her aside today to work on Shores, but it didn't happen. I guess I'm enjoying it too much to put it down!

Elizabeth Mears Sampler

Elizabeth Mears as of 1/2/11
40 ct. Vintage Meadow Rue by Lakeside Linens, NPI silks (1 over 2).

This is going to be a huge sampler! Check out Ellen's latest wip pic. It's just amazing!!

Well, the kids go back to school tomorrow. Time to get back to our routine. No more sleeping in - I'll really miss that! :) Write soon!

  11. You're off to a wonderful start!!! I think I'm going to have to add this to the stash pile. Is that border at the top bargello??? Oh, be still my heart if it is. That house in the center looks daunting though. I'm going to be looking forward to your progress on this!
