SAL Stitcher's Verse is finished

Iam participated on SAL Stitcher's verse which held on September 1st until January 31st 2014. Every month we will upload our projects based on first row until the last row. However, iam already finished first before the deadline. Here we are my another finished project :)

My First row - October 2013

"Cross-stitchers are a different breed

The things we hope for, the things we need

We wish for floss to finish that row

We sometimes wish our guests would go"

My Second Row - November 2013

"We wait all day for that time to be

That special time~ that time for ME

Each needle is threaded, the colors arrayed

Scissors and chart have been carefully laid"

My third Row - December 2013

"Now we relax, this is our pleasure

Stitching this piece of soon-to-be treasure

We always ignore that mental warning

Stitching all night makes it rough in the morning"

 My last Row - January 2014

"But time's unimportant, we don't heed clocks

We just need floss and a sewing box

Our project awaits us, now we proceed

This must be heaven ~ what more could we need!"

I really love the theme is! hahaa every stitcher must have same problem like that verse! :*
