This was a kit saved from my early days of stitching.
Hospitality Sampler, by Words of Praise...
I see an occasional kit by them on eBay, but see no indication that they are still in business.
When I retired in 2011 I started it, but set it aside with only the alphabet completed. Recently it was calling my name, as I’ve had a renewed interest in cross stitch.
I am pleased with the results, though it isn’t perfect. The eyesight isn’t what it once was, and I am using both a magnifier and additional lighting. I have plans to stitch some additional pieces.
All 888 1/2 square triangles for God Bless America are stitched, pressed and trimmed.
Now onto construction.
Last night was NHS Spirit Night at the Redneck Gourmet. A fundraiser for the cheerleaders. Blake and I were happy to be able to support them.
Take Care,

I don't have the patience for cross stitch but back in the day did other types of embroidery. The cartoon is SO TRUE.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful finish! I will have to send you a pic of my Words of Praise sampler done many decades ago.
