There’s a SLIM chance I could finish this by the end of the day. I have some waiting room time and I think I can see the holes without a magnifier. I’m going to take it with me, sit in the corner with my stitching frame and do some fill in work on the house, roof and text box.

See all the little pieces of thread . . I had the left heart border off by three stitches. I would have left it but the reason it was off is because after the center heart in the top row, I did a dash, then a heart and continued with a dash/heart/dash and ended with the extra dash so that put that side border off, but worse . . the top border had that extra dash so I ripped it all back last night and re-stitched it.

– I recently got a pair of readers to take with me on vacation and for stitching away from my magnifier. They are Lori Holt brand 4.0 magnification, very light weight and stylish 😉 As long as there is light in the room, they are a good substitute for the magnifier. They have them at the Fat Quarter shop.
