Just one week

One week doesn't seem like a long time but a lot can happen in just one week. I have finished my Bluenose Dime and it is looking good!

 
Now I have to decide how to finish it... I could frame it, make a pillow or a wallhanging - I'm not so sure yet. On the bottom right corner I've placed a real dime but it's hard to see the schooner. I've also found a beautiful story about Bluenose. Have a look, there is even a short video!

My garden has changed in one week also!

And I am five pounds lighter today than a week ago!

So long my friends,
Evalina

    A lot of work in that crossstich. Congratulations on the weight loss. I also have a lot of nasturtiuns in my garden, which will die off in summer and come back again with winter.
