Cross Stitch from P. Buckley Moss

I have always enjoyed cross stitching.  The idea of having a blank canvas and watching it come alive with colors and designs is as close to being an artist as I will ever be!

These two designs are called "Adam" and "Amy."  I sewed them onto 18 count fabric ~ which I probably would have a very difficult time seeing today (:

Recently I learned that Alicia Paulson  is designing a new cross stitch sampler. I used her "Daisychain ABC" crewel pattern to make samplers for Layla and Cole, which turned out so lovely. I am really looking forward to spring when her new kit is available.
