Oh What A Beautiful Day!

It is such a beautiful day here that I just had to sit out on the deck and do some hand stitching. I received my partner information for the Embroidery Mini Quilt Swap and this was an excellent opportunity to get a start on the embroidery. I haven't embroidered anything since I was a teenager so I am a little rusty. I thought a practice piece or two would be a good idea. I will post a few pictures after I get it done and the recipient receives it. I don't want to spoil the surprise. Have a great day everyone!
