I started a counted cross stitch of the last supper in 1991. There were 47 colors or blends. I called it my worry piece. I would work on it until I started making mistakes then I'd snuggle up in the recliner with my ripple crochet throw I was also working on because I didn't have to look at it to work it.
I like to have something easy to do when I'm to mentally drained to concentrate on 22 count cloth. ;)

My Great Grandmother, who taught me more about quilting than anyone else, would have said: "You go Girl!" Honestly. She was like that. A simply awesome woman. And I must take after her because there isn't room here for my list of current projects, and never mind the ones piled up in my head!

You go Girl!

I vote with your GGM, but then I am a sick woman
