A friend from Fort Wayne who I used to work with at Joann's does a lot of cross-stitch. So I proposed a barter to her - If she'd finish off one kit that I'd had for more than 20 yrs without working on it, in return I'd send her all the kits I was getting rid of.
This is the beautiful piece of work that she did. I can't wait to put it into a wall-hanging.
Gratitudes:
1. for friends who do beautiful work and who barter.
2. For the reminder of who is in ultimate control.
