Here's a neat little YouTube video - I know it has made the rounds on blogs and Facebook, but maybe it'll be new to some of you:
I'm really close to finishing the sampler I started on my birthday last year. Really, really close! I just need to stop hip-hopping around and finish a few areas. (and start the border, but let's not talk about that right now) Like newspaper reading, this sampler holds too many distractions for me!

That sampler is gorgeous. I don't think I could put it down til I finished it.
ReplyDeletejust lovely ! congrats
ReplyDeleteIt is very nice.
ReplyDeleteI can't imagine my life without books. Like you, I'm not fond of newspapers or magazines.
ReplyDeleteYour sampler is beautiful - I love the "love me love my samplers" sentiment on it.
Hi Lee, what a cute video, I love books too, both ebooks and the old-fashioned kind ;) Your sampler is looking beautiful! Have a great day.
ReplyDeleteA very pretty sampler with soft muted colours. I do love a magazine, I'm afraid, I'm always drawn to glossy magazines with pretty crafts and gardens.
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful sampler! Yum! I love books too -- couldn't live without them.
ReplyDeleteI really like your sampler and it's colors. Good luck with the finish.
ReplyDeleteOh very beautiful sampler !!!
ReplyDeletebisous de France
Such a pretty sampler!
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute video. :) I can't imagine life without books.
Beautiful work! I love that piece. I stitch it for my mom several years ago for Christmas. It's a classic.
ReplyDeleteI just love your sampler. I don't think I've ever seen that piece before, but it's very pretty.
ReplyDeleteVery sweet sampler!! Love the colors!
ReplyDeleteOh, you're so close to a finish, Lee--we'll be happy dancing with you very soon!
ReplyDeleteI love books too and that video is so cool. Beautiful sampler. You're almost there!
ReplyDeleteHugs,
Veronica.
Give a good book and you have an happy woman. Since young, that was a way of getting knowledge in a very fun way. We have a lot of them and nothing, but nothing can compare to opening a book, smelling the paper, starting to read!!! Amazing!
ReplyDeleteYour sampler is gorgeous. Are you bringing it this weekend? Ah Books - you know I can't live without them - they are my business. But I've loved books forever and now I love e-books too. (And I like magazines, especially my stitching magazines!)
ReplyDeleteI love the book thing and the sampler's not bad either! Thanks for sharing
ReplyDeleteI saw the video, it is nice, and the pictures are too.
