| to the left is a beautiful afghan s. sommer made for me and DH for our wedding. it's just beautiful and very warm! this thank you (right) was made into a card for her. it is a HIH freebie called spring that i recharted to read thank you. thanks to pricilla in FL for the fabric! 2004. |
| the piece on the right is Race Lover by Candimar Designs. the piece on the left is my version. i thought "race lover" sounded campy so i recharted the title. all the items in the boxes had 1/4 stitches added to round out the look as well as 2-strand backstitching to everything to make them stand out. i added 2 more word breaks at the bottom. i also recharted the checkered flag to make it look more authentic. this piece is for my cousin for Christmas. 2004. |
| above left you is the underside just flipped over so you can see it. the right side is the top: an alternating diamond/criss-cross pattern and a popcorn-like pattern. |
| i'm so proud of the lacing job i did on the back, but no one will ever see it! LOL! |
