I'm still stitching.....

I've finally finished my house stitchery. Phew! That takes a while. As it's the biggest stitchery, I'll now be pleased to get on to some smaller ones and see them finished.
With high blood pressure problems at the moment caused by a kidney not working properly, I think quiet stitching will be on the cards for the weekend.

I am sorry to hear that you don't feel well but your house is beautiful. Stitching is very relaxing and good for a too high blood pressure.

I like the big ones best because I don't have to change thread as often.

Its Mother's Day in America, also.
