I got this piece back from the finishers last week. The French Knot did the finishing. Reasonably priced and quick to boot. I love this. I just can’t say enough good things about the French Knot. Maybe we’ll ride the train down and I can spend the afternoon with them after Jacob get’s out of [...]

This is a custom piece Gail Hendrix of Squiggee Designs did for me for a bloggy friend who’s had to bear more in that last year than any person should. It is stitched in Vineyard Silk [...]
