Confessions of an addicted cross stitcher

When my kids were little I was so addicted to cross stitch.

It was something I could do while I was with them.

I did stamped and counted.

I found this in some stuff my mom gave me.

I started it about a year ago.

It has been with me on all my trips this year.

I have been outlining it for the last two months.

It is finished.

I am seriously looking for another cross stitch project.

I should have never started.

I put the final border on this quilt.

I have to admit, that I have been happy to work on it.

I want to get some pink -really pink- minky

and finish it. 

I also quilted this baby quilt this week.

When I work on this thing,

I think it is beyond ugly,

but when I see it in a picture,

it looks okay.

At any rate, I realized that the only way to finish it 

is with some blue.

I only had a couple of inches of this blue,

really?  I have boat load of the wrong color blue 

so I ordered a piece of just the right color.
