I am showing you a picture of the completed stitching minus one thing I added. Brian asked if I would stitch his boss' name on the hat. So I did. I did not show that. That is also why you are not seeing the final framed picture. It is framed in a black 8x8 frame from Michael's.
I am actually going in to work with Brian tonight! That will be a surprise alright! I will give the gift then. I just have to go downstairs to the bakery remember. Once the gift is given, then those two can bake bread and I can go upstairs to our apartment and go to bed!
If you should actually want to stitch this for yourself, you can find this freebie RIGHT HERE
Thank you for stopping by today. Thank you for leaving sweet comments. Have a super weekend!
Stitching and praying,
Vickie

ReplyDeleteToday I’m off to do some errands with Mom and bring her a loaf of Dutch Oven Bread. This time I experimented with adding some whole wheat flour. This is a new adaptation and I’m curious to see what she thinks. Judy
