I am INTRIGUED. And nosy. (Maybe just nosy. Damn it. Does that make me nosy?) I know you've been struggling with your parents for a long time now. It's so hard. Hopefully this will be the year it sorts it's self out a bit. :(<br /><br />You've gotten further on your Mystery Sampler than I have on mine. I made a serious boo-boo on the second part (I got halfway through the 2nd part before I realized EVERYTHING was one row off *sigh*) and it's still in time out for the moment. lol. Love the other L*K finishes. The color changes on the first one are perfect. <br /><br />Kudos to you for waiting until you got over 1,000 to reset your posts. I usually give up at 150 or so. I'm having to face the fact that I can't leave a comment on EVERYTHING I would like to comment on. I need to be *slightly* pickier so I can't actual keep things in check. <br /><br />Jill Rensel package? *fans self* Definitely can't wait for that one.Melaniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06230362349362748862noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12317509.post-32049148833584862832014-01-25T11:58:58.979-08:002014-01-25T11:58:58.979-08:00It's so lovely to see a post from you Valerie!...It's so lovely to see a post from you Valerie! Love your stitching. I know what you mean about stitching being theraputic. Cross stitch has got me through many a hard time.<br /> The 'Ho Ho Ho' is definitely one I'd like to stitch. What do you mean by 'Shepherds Bush thread conversion'? <br />I look forward to hearing about the new person in your life! :0) Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00465814935013604949noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12317509.post-65047388483915540222014-01-25T10:39:30.894-08:002014-01-25T10:39:30.894-08:00Beautiful projects and finishes Valerie.
