Anniversary cross stitch

Post by wendy »

My daughter has been married 25 years on the 16th. I have done this for her, we have just framed it. I thought I would show you it before I wrap it.
Not the best photo I am afraid, but I took it with my aim and fire cybershot.

I have got loads, Gill.
I do keep the patterns. So I am happy to share.
I am afraid I have so many done now. I am a bit like the Tate Gallery. I have to keep taking ones down to put others up. )grin2(

I love the words on this one Al. I have done it a number of times for anniversaries of friends. I wish someone would do it for me :-D I will have to do my own I think.
Getting heavy here. But the words are so true. Love does change to something far deeper and precious the longer you stay the course.
