Lo, A Rose Needlework Redux

I really miss my former creative endeavors.  Life has been sort of stressful and while reading is always a welcome escape, sometimes it can be hard to concentrate on a story, so my needlework is a natural next choice.  It is something to concentrate on while still being able to relax and be distracted.  I hate to admit how long ago I started my Lo, a Rose Sampler, but it was the handiest (and easiest) project close by.  The colors are nicely muted and subtle and the stitching is easy, so out it came and I have been spending a bit of time each day this week on it.  Maybe I can actually get back into the habit of stitching again.  I do miss the feel of a needle and thread in hand.  I hope I'll be sharing more of this (and maybe some other works, too).
