Cross Stitch Love

I think I may be a little too obsessed with these cross stitch pendants! I just found this Indian wall hanging on Etsy, in the ThreadsOfOld shop, and think it will be great inspiration to pull little designs from for my next one.

My first one was a little safe -- a simple symmetric design with hearts. I now know that I can probably extend my design by 2 squares, to better fill the space.

In other news, E is finally getting over a nasty cold, and Mark and I seem to be getting it (yay). Hopefully we'll all be healthy by the end of the week. Looking forward to a fun, end of July BBQ with my family!
