walls for the wind
and a roof for the rain
and drinks beside the fire ~
laughter to cheer you
and those you love near you
and all that your heart desires.
by Ogden Nash
Some primal termite knocked on wood
And tasted it, and found it good!
And that is why your Cousin May
Fell through the parlor floor today.

A bit about me
First and foremost is my love of needlework...esp reproduction samplers...if i`m not stitching them, i`m reading about them or just drooling
over all the ones i`ll never live long enough to stitch...then there is my computer obsession...so many things to do and read and discover!...I also am
completely addicted to the HLBB...a bulletin board for fans of Highlander the movies and series...there are people there who are more like family than
friends...and it is where I met G (Galeon 7), my 'significant other'...I am divorced after 24 years of marriage (that was a big change) and living most
of the time in Colorado Springs...G and I have two cats and are disgustingly happy...
That`s about it..for now...who knows what next month or even week will bring...and
i`m ok with that...
Flowers, plants and fishes,
beasts, birds, flies, and bees
Hills, dales, plains, pastures,
skies, seas, rivers, trees:
there's nothing near at hand or farthest sought
but with the needle may be shaped and wrought.
from The Needle's Excellency, by John Taylor (1634)
Strength, Love, and Honor
Yesterday my friend Michael died. He has been having heath issues for awhile now and they caught up with him.
He leaves behind a beautiful wife and daughters. There is a hole in my heart a mile wide. No one can ever replace him.
R.I.P Katana Tiger. We will meet again.
Stitchy folks I know

Here is a color you can never take away from me.
It made a hole in my eyes when I was young,
and now my eyes gather round it`s memory like deer round a pool,
lapping at the beauty of this rich magenta,
a red that persists like the beat of my heart.

As far as I know this design didn't appear in ASNQ. One of her other designs for the "Millenium Cutwork Sampler" was serialized in that magazine in 2000. It's on the 'wish list'.
I got my pattern from Wyndham Needleworks.
