Roni graduates in May with her doctorate in Physical Therapy. Her graduation gift is this cross stitch piece. It is a the letter R with the word Rainbow at the bottom. Stitched over the word rainbow are the words, promise of hope.
My friend Brenda has made a design for each letter of the alphabet and I want to do them all! They are so, so cool!!! I do have a pattern for the letter H, which is There's no place like Home! Can't wait to start work on that.
But, Roni's comes first. I did the letter A for Alicia for her graduation from the New England Conservatory of Music, now almost two years ago. Roni's is not a surprise......I can't keep a secret! The surprise might be that I finish it! I am focusing on this project for the month of February. Well, this and another quilt, but this is my primary focus. I'm really excited to see how it turns out. I love cross stitch. Really, really, love it!!! That and embroidery are my first loves. Quilting has come much later in the project realm.
