    She's lovely, Nicole. And that blue is amazing. Reminds me of Carribean waters. You are still an inspiration.

    Fabulous! This design didn't catch my eye at the OLNS, but seeing yours completed... WOW! I think I may have to order this one, too. You always have such good taste when choosing what you stitch. I've finally got my blog up and running, if you want to take a look. I still need to buy a fresh battery for my camera so I can take some WIP pics. I've posted a couple of times already, including some pics of my two sons. Happy Stitching!

    Congrats on finishing Garden Girl. It's beautiful! I was reading Chrissie's blog (http://chrissieqld.blogspot.com/) yesterday, and she received the 'Sarah Tobias' book in the mail. Sounds like it's going to be popular. I'm quite liking it too :)

    I love your garden girl! Another fantastic finish! WOW. Well, I deleted my blog-too many freaks out there, I am scared for Kellan. So, I'll keep in touch through yours.
    What can you stitch for a boy's room? (grin)
