Put together my great-nephew’s stocking that I cross stitched. It’s finished and ready for the holidays. This makes the 7th stocking that I have #crossstitched.

Today is my wonderful husband’s birthday. I met him our freshman year of college when he was 17 and I was 18. More than 40 years ago.
Time flies when you’re having fun. Happy Birthday, honey. 🎂🎁❤️🎈

Current WIP. I’ve had these patterns for decades and finally going to stitch each state we have lived in since we married. I’m customizing parts (not going to stitch the confederacy part) and adding our university and towns we lived in.

Made my sign from a cardboard Amazon box, packing paper and scotch tape. I wasn’t paid to be there. I wasn’t whacked out.
