Another one flying off to a new home...

Oh, this turned out so cute. I wish you could all see it in person to see exactly what I mean. It's so simple yet looks awesome!! I stitched the original kit many years ago and made myself a needlebook-it was large as it was a Bent Creek Zippie kit and used 18 ct. linen. This one is SOOOO tiny compared to mine.
I finished it off a little differently. I wanted something simple but pleasing. I used some of the fabric from my Aunt's mother and some twine for a hanger. It will look adorable hanging from a knob or shelf board peg :). I honestly had the best time stitching and finishing this and it is done with LOVE :) :) :) I have a few people in mind for this one...just not quite sure yet who it will be going to live with :)
Guys..I take so many pictures hoping I get at least one good one in the bunch :)








A.Bee.C
Designer: Bent Creek
Fabric: 32ct. Natural
Fibers: DMC
Date Started:1-3-11

Thank you all so much for your encouragement VIA email and comments. I appreciate you all so very much :) You're simply PRICELESS :) I hope to get back into the swing of commenting/visiting this week...I'll read a few blogs at a time so I don't feel overwhelmed or as if I am spending way too much time online :)
Thanks for visiting with me-I truly appreciate it :)
hugs and love from SC :)

Becky, I have been following your blog for over a year now. I have never commented as I am more of a lurker than anything else but I had to step out of the shadows today and tell you that you are the most giving soul I have ever seen. I have never met anyone that gave so freely and without expectations. Your talents are above excellent and your zest for stitching and life are infectous. I am not commenting here today to receive anything from you I just think that there comes a time when you have to let people know how much their actions affect others in such positive ways and how much they touch lives they may not even be aware of. You are one of those people Becky. Those people you hear about that do so much for others out of the joy of giving. Sadly in todays world those people are few and far between I hope you never change.
Thank you for inspiring so many that follow your blog.
