Crosstiches

Before and after. I went and had Brother Gray matte this for me. I like it much better!
RENEE'S CROSSTICH
I made a total of 3 of these. So 2 for other people before I made hers. I don't think I will ever do this one again.It is very big and the little stars, I did one at a time so you couldn't see the line stretching from the back. I am very picky how my crosstiches look
ISAAC'S CROSSTICH
I designed this one. I just love the border I created. I wanted to do strawberries on Helen's but I decided to make it simpler.
HELEN'S CROSSTICH
I can't wait to fix up her room in Strawberry shortcake. It will be so much fun.

I have a wonderful friend in the ward that does awesome matting and framing. I only go to him now. I noticed that Renee's needs his touch. I just love how well he picked out Helen's. I just love the frame and matting together. He loved Isaac's so much, I made him one but with his name on it saying "Hi, Dale"
I make a crosstich for each of my kids with there info on it. i will have to go find Faythe's and Jordan's (I did his info at the same time I did Renee's and I must of been tired because her info is on his crosstich so I have to take it out and fix it). Actually, my friend made Faythe's for me.
Anyway, the other projects I make is their stocking (yeah, only Helen's to do) and hopefully their quilts. I have Faythe's and Jordan's done. My friend is sewing Renee's right now and hope to be done before her b-day in June. Isaac's I wish I could have done before his 2nd b-day on Thursday. We will see. Helen's needs to be started. It is 1/2 done and that is because my father n law crochet it for me. All I have to do now is my part. I do use her quilt all the time though. Anyway, I hope you enjoy these as much as I do.
