Life is a garden, not a road We enter and exit through the same gate.
Wandering, where we go matters less than what we notice.

Your cross stitch is really beautiful. I enjoy cross-stitching but had a bit of a problem with my eyes. I had to use magnifying glasses. I haven't crossed stitched a while.
Thanks for your comment on my blog. I really appreciate it. I hope that you have a lovely weekend.
Hugs, Julia
I want to go through that gate and see what lays beyond. I am curious about the house and about those who live there. I love this piece!
That's so sweet. I know there was lots of "cutsie" stuff in the late 80's and early 90's, but it really was a kind look, wasn't it?
Oh that's beautiful! And I'll write that quote in my journal today! It's perfect for me! Enjoy your weekend!
Oh how lovely! Your work always makes me yearn for being able to do such beautiful stitching....I wanted to answer a question you asked me on my blog-yes-I have painted some of the photos from my grandfather's farm. I really need to do more, as the photos were so beautiful-not because of anything I did, but the subject matter was so beautiful. I hope your Thanksgiving is rich with memories and beauty. thanks so much for being my pal. Give Sophie a hug for me...
I stitch this piece in the 1980's. Wonderful! Janice
What a gorgeous, gorgeous stitchery. I love the backstitching. It really makes the design! The arching vine over the little gate!
This is beautiful. I meant to say about your crochet piece in the above, it is beautiful, too.
