These are my all time favourite panels. Every time I stitch one up, memories come flooding back.
This could easily be our Mandy and Frisky curled up together on the braided rug in front of the fireplace on a cold winter's day.
The other day driving through town all the cars stopped -- on a four lane road -- to wait for the Canada Geese to cross the road. It happens time and again and yes, we just sit there. And we laugh and say .... how truly Canadian is this. I know it's not geese but it's a Momma and her babies.
I used a different pantograph and a different thread this time. The pantograph is called Splash of Love from Anne Bright and the thread is an OMNI solid Colonial Gray. I defy you to find any gray in this thread. It blends into every fabric.
When someone is loved, you have to use hearts!!
