Hi friends! I would like to share my May finish for the pedestal frame with you.
This is "May Joyful Journal" by Heart in Hand. I think it is a really sweet pattern. I stitched this two over two on mystery 30 count linen with the called for DMC, except for the blue of the bicycle. I used VMSS 1795 Sky Blue.
I also completed one more autograph on my brother Jonathan's bluegrass bibs.
One more to go!
I am working on the Rainbow Gallery May piece for my cubby shelf. I will have that finished for next time.
Well I have been turned on to Kate Morton books lately! Are you one of my friends who also reads them?! They are good aren't they?!
A tiny girl is abandoned on a ship headed for Australia in 1913. She arrives completely alone with nothing but a small suitcase containing a few clothes and a single book—a beautiful volume of fairy tales. She is taken in by the dockmaster and his wife and raised as their own. On her twenty-fi rst birthday, they tell her the truth, and with her sense of self shattered and very little to go on, "Nell" sets out to trace her real identity. Her quest leads her to Blackhurst Manor on the Cornish coast and the secrets of the doomed Mountrachet family. But it is not until her granddaughter, Cassandra, takes up the search after Nell’s death that all the pieces of the puzzle are assembled. A spellbinding tale of mystery and self-discovery, The Forgotten Garden will take hold of your imagination and never let go.

Stitching and praying,

Love your May pedestal finish, Vickie! Way to go! Good for you on getting another signature stitched. Wishing you a fabulous Friday and a wonderful weekend.
Hi Vickie. Sounds like another great book!! I have added it to my wish list.
Once again another lovely finish. You are almost finished with the autographs? Wow, You really got them done quickly. Watch it, brother will find another project for you!
Vickie: Your finish is beautiful in the pedestal frame.
I totally love the photo of the guy carrying the poodle so sweet.

I love your May pedestal stitch Vickie. I've admired that pattern for quite awhile. It is perfect for this month. Good for you accomplishing so much on your brother's jeans. You are a great sister. RJ@stitchingfriendsforever
A sweet finish.
I don't read much at all nowadays, a few years ago, yes. Kate Morton was one of those I did read and I loved her books.
A very cute finish, it looks so pretty in that pedestal stand.
Have a great weekend!

Love your May finish and the frame pedestal you used. That book sounds very interesting....am going to check that one out.
I love your new pattern in the frame. And the new autograph is again quite good.
Oh, Kate Morten writes very well. I have already read two of her books and heard one as an audiobook. I love them.
Have a nice sunday, Hugs Martina

The May Pedestal finish is perfect! Thanks for the review of "The Forgotten Garden". My daughter got it for me awhile back, but I haven't read it yet. I'll have to move it up on my my list of "to read". Enjoy today!
Wonderful motiv in the frame. I love it.
Hugs, Manuela
I enjoy Kate Morton books too!! OH, your nearing the end with the bib!! The bicycle stitch is perfectly sweet in that cute frame. I just love the photo of the man carrying that BIG poodle!!
Vickie, this was from me too, sorry RJ!!
Lovely May finish and hooray for another autograph done!
What a lovely finish, that pedestal frame is certainly getting a work out with beautiful finishes!
I have never read any of her books, but that one sounds good. Thanks for sharing.
I'm a Kate Morton fan too Vickie.
