About the same time as signing up for the Black and White Swap, I volunteered to do a counted cross stitch for a little boy with Spinal Muscular Atrophy. The children with SMA usually don't live long -- many for just a couple of years. The sweetie I did "Rabbit" for is now 4 1/2.

Sooo, I have finally finished both the cross stitch AND my black and white blocks. Both will go in the mail tomorrow, as they are both due at the same time. I feel like I can breathe now. From now on.......one project with a time commitment at a time! :shock: :shock:

It is wonderful.

I'm sure your little friend is going to love it!

You did a great job!

Wow -- that block is fabulous!

that is so darling...I get that thoughtful look sometimes, lol! :wink:

Now that is darling!!

THANK YOU! Now that I'm finished with it I can look at it more objectively. Definitely looks better at a distance!!!! :lol: (Of course, I know where each and every mistake is) Anyway, thanks for your nice comments. It's fun to show you all pictures.

QC, I seem to have that "blank stare" a lot lately - and I don't have to have a butterfly on my nose! LOL

That block is adorable!!! If that doesn't put a smile on his face, nothing will :D :D :D Good Job!!! :thumbup:

I love it. GREAT JOB! :D
