 A few years ago I picked up this cross stitch quilt at a yard sale.  It has been in a tub in my craft room for years.  I am working hard on trying to clear out all my projects so I can start all fresh.   I love doing these and then crocheting around the edges.  They make great baby shower gifts.  But this one came with no paperwork, so I have no idea what it is or the colors.   So hubby and I are both looking to see which is the top and which is the bottom and what we are looking at. We could not decide so I suggested me starting on one corner and outlining the items that I find. And then we began to see what was in the stitches.  At first we thought it was a kitten but now thinking it is a bear.  But so fun to see what is coming of the stitches.  Kinda fun not knowing and just getting to choose my own colors. This will be available in our shop when I get it all finished...Will keep you posted on what is in the design.

 This was a very large vendor show....lots of booths and great items.  Hubby set on one side and me on the other and we had a walk through for everyone.  We had so many items that daughter and I create that we didn't have enough room for everything.  We have been making pillowcase dolls for ever.  Standing so pretty and tall. Thank you hubby for all your help.  Was fun and enjoyed meeting so many new people.
