Part 6 already! and your stitched pieces are looking so good. I am really pleased so do keep them coming in for us all to see.

I have just added another Willow pattern design to my website shop, based on my fusion of decorative blackwork and cross stitches. The first, LJT177 Willow pattern picture, is the companion and I think they will work really well together and both are ideal as cushions or framed pictures.

What a brilliant start last week for our new sampler. Lots of lovely pictures coming in from you which is such a delight to see.

Part 2 of a stylised snowdrop is this week's motif. I noticed yesterday in our garden that many are already in leaf so I hope it won't be too long before the flowers start to appear. Such a delightful little plant.
