Stop and Smell the Roses

This has been one of Jim's favorite phrases.  He asked that I create a sampler that would be likely done in the 1800's to reflect this sentiment.  

This is the work that resulted from that request.  The two images of the cats add to this chart as two of our cats, Sasha and Tawney, love to eat the Baby's Breath when they stop to smell the roses.  Chart only.

Stand Tall the Flag

This is an original poem by Jim and he designed the chart too!  This chart is with a test stitcher now and we expect a release by mid - end of June.  The chart measures almost 13" x 18" and is only cross-stitch and back-stitch.  A chart for the beginner to the most advanced.  This piece is sure to please any one who has served in our Armed Forces.   Comes with original autographed copy of the poem ready for framing in 8.5" x 11" frame (frame is not included).

I Wish

The poem was written by Jim just after I was diagnosed with breast cancer.  We are donating $5.00 for every book sold to Breast Cancer Research.   This chart measures about 17"x17" and the border is a combination of hearts and the breast cancer symbol.  Comes with original autographed copy of the poem ready for framing in 8.5" x 11" frame (frame is not included)
