Cross Stitch
Lately the weather seems a bit moody around the United States. It’s supposed to be Spring, but a lot of us are still seeing Winter weather and cold temperatures. I finally saw some sunshine yesterday and today looks pretty good… it might turn out to be a really sunny week here in my part of Virginia.
This pattern is ornament-sized at 70 x 70 stitches, but it doesn’t necessarily have to be an ornament.
Enjoy the pattern and please share with a friend 
Happy Stitching!

I personally love it and get tons of ideas not only with new cross stitch designs, but garden, home, food .. lots of food ideas!
