Something old, something new

No - not wedding samplers.... well - not quite... on this occasion.

But as I am taking part for the first time in a 'blog hop' this weekend, I figured I'd best attempt to have a bit more craft-related content for my match to read... much as I loved the OU journey myself, I'm not certain that it will have the same draw for my crafty readers.


Not the greatest of photographs, but here's one I completed (wow) 10 years ago, for my parents' ruby wedding anniversary.  It will be their Golden anniversary this year and I haven't managed anything, mostly because coronavirus took over the world and lost focus on everything else in the meantime.

Wondering whether a revisit to this pattern with some changes to colours and numbering might be a possibility? (It being August now, there's not an awful lot of stitching time left before their anniversary).

Time to go play in the 'stash' and see whether I can drum up anything.

  1. Sounds like a good plan to me, and something for you to sew between SALs when the stitching mojo takes you.

    1. I *should* be stitching and finishing the Madonna and Child WIP, but somehow I need an 'easier' stitch at the moment.

  2. That is a wonderful accomplishment for your parents and your stitching on it looks beautiful too. Good luck with revisiting the pattern!
