Birth Sampler Finished

I have finished my Sampler for my Nephews Christening, it has taken me just over 3 months to do, I decided to do the storks on the center panel in white as they where more in keeping with the real thing as this is for a boy.

I have nearly finished Knitting the soft toy to go with the sampler so will post a picture soon.

I will now have to find a new project to stitch, I have many things waiting in the wings also a few UFO's.

Sampler

As you can see I have nearly finished my Sampler. I am on the last panel in the center, there are 2 stork's on this panel, they are meant to be pink not sure as this is for a boy, I tried one out in the pale blue/grey which is already used on the sampler but I can not decide which to use what do you think?

I have also decided to knit an animal on the sampler watch this space to see which one I do.

Pin Pillow Exchange

As you can see I have nearly finished my Sampler I hope to have it completed by this weekend so watch this space!

I took part in Becky's Pin pillow Exchange on her blog and I received a beautiful Pin Pillow from Anne she has used a Quaker pattern and stitched it in my favorite colour purple, you cannot see from the picture but it is also edged in purple beads. I have just sent my Exchange off to the USA so will show a picture once it has been received.
