Finally Another Page Done

That's right I finally have another page under my belt!  I don't know why this page felt like it took so long but I'm glad it's done and I'm even about 300 stitches into the next page.  

What is that I spy?  That's right we have the beginning of another word making its appearance.  I forgot about that so I'm actually about 400 stitches in I think.  I don't know how large the letters actually are.  I think on the next page or the page after we'll be seeing the sun.  This is page 4 across and the halfway mark is on page 7.  I promise I haven't forgot about my trip report but I've been in a stitchy mood and I'm sure you guys are more interested in that :D

But in the meantime here's one of my fave pics of the trip.

I also saw an idea I want to make myself.  It's basically two strips of wood made to look like a frame with strong magnets on them that you use to display art which I will use to display my finished pieces.  You attach one to the wall then sandwich the art in between.  And do the same on the bottom.  Then you can change them out as often as you like.  Should be cheap and easy to make.  They have them for sale in stiicks.com. Not an endorsement I just thought it was s really good idea.

Until next time stitchers!
