💐💐💐

Hi friends! I finished the antique sampler I was stitching AND I framed it over the weekend AND Brian hung it on the sampler wall!

💐Zoe Elie 1842.💐
Free pattern. Grille gratuite  You can find at  www.reflets-de-soie.fr I stitched this lovely antique sampler with VMSS threads and DMC of my own color choices, and I also used the greens suggested.
I used an antique Sajou alphabet for my own initials.
This is now up on the sampler wall in the kitchen.💗

The LORD thy God in the midst of thee is mighty; He will save, He will rejoice over thee with joy; He will rest in His love, He will joy over thee with singing. —Zephaniah 3:17

I hope and pray you are all healthy and safe where you are. Keep vigilant my friends. We have not seen the last of this virus. Unfortunately now in our state of Wisconsin Coronavirus cases continue to rise since the Safer At Home Order was overturned a few weeks ago in our State Supreme Court. Our Children's Hospital also now has treated at least seven children for the Multi-System Inflammatory Syndrome. Horrible news.

Stitching and praying,
Vickie

Vickie, Your sampler is so beautiful and lovely colors you selected for it. It's perfect in the white round frame. Love the style of your initial too. Did the pattern call for initials or was that your idea? Either way,I love how it personalizes the stitch.
I am still in lockdown mode for the most part, I did got to Home Depot for mulch yesterday and regretted it, too many people in the store for my comfort. I would hate to think I spent all this time isolating and then got sick for mulch!

I love your stitching finish -- it's just gorgeous! So lovely! Yes, all the opening up around the country worries me a lot. Our area just started the reopening process using the suggested steps from our governor. It's nerve wracking to say the least. Take care, stay safe!

Oh, how pretty, Vickie! When I clicked on the link you gave, though, it didn't take me to the right sight?

Scary how people are jumping back into things now that the weather has warmed up. I have not been inside a store since mid-March--my husband just does curbside pickup for groceries. We are reopening some things on Friday here in my county--I'll be up at mom's safe and sound :) Take care now ♥

Your stitching is just darling!

SO concerning about the Multi Symptom Inflammatory Syndrome in 7 kids in your children's hospital. There is so much unknown and that causes so much worry. Thank your son for doing what he does! xoxo

Your vintage Sampler is lovely. It makes a great addition to your wall.
I hope you are continuing to shield yourself while the numbers are rising. Our Government say shielded people can leave the house now but many don't feel it is safe yet.

Annie said...

Such a beautiful finish! It looks stunning on your wall.

Barb said...

So pretty and I love the way you framed it!

It looks beautiful and so lovely hanging on the wall, a wonderful joint effort!
Things are opening up here, but we're still being careful. So sad about the children, I hope they all safely recover.
