It has arrived!!

I have been on the search for this beauty (Spanish Mystery Sampler - Shakespeare's Peddler) ever since I saw Natalia's beautiful work over at Stitching-4-Joy last year.  You have to see this piece in all her glory, in the most perfect frame I have ever seen to be meant for a piece.

 Check out Natalia's devine work.

I can only hope I can give my sampler the same honor.

Thank you Theresa Venette of Shakespeare's Peddler for reproducing this lovely piece.

My husband was born in Madrid, Spain. No it's not that exotic...he is dark haired and handsome, but no sexy accent. Hahah. His father was stationed at the AF base. But when I saw this I knew it would be the coolest birthday present to make him. Hmmmm, I did not realize how B I G this baby is so, I'm thinking I might get it done by his 45th in four years. Hahaha.

  I just want to "woller" in these beautiful silks. Yum!

 

The ladies at Traditional Stitches in Calgary, Alberta where a pleasure to work with.

  I know, I know I need to finish C@HRH and two more baby gifts before I start another project. What the heck! I can't wait to get my needle into this one.

 

Keep on stitching.
