  1. I really like your Anniversaries Of The Heart piece. What fibers have you used? I started January in the called for threads and they are brown instead of the silver/gray i admired on the leaflet.

  2. Hi Lindy, I used all the called for threads. Dye-lots could have changed from when I first started it though...

  3. I loved seeing all of your beautiful samplers and kitted projects; they are all gorgeous!! Seeing your Rose Wreath makes me want to get mine out and work on it; it is such a beautiful piece. I hope that wherever you move there is a LNS close by - that will help make things much better. Hugs and happy stitching............

  4. Hello Nicole! Could you share the linen color and threadcount you used for Anniversaries of the heart? Your white portions really seem to stand out more than other examples I have seen. And thanks for all the inspiration!

  5. As reported by Stanford Medical, It is indeed the SINGLE reason women in this country get to live 10 years longer and weigh an average of 42 lbs lighter than us.

    (And really, it has NOTHING to do with genetics or some secret exercise and EVERYTHING to "how" they are eating.)

    BTW, I said "HOW", and not "WHAT"...
