February Stitching and March TUSAL


It's that time again to post progress for the Month.  The TUSAL is slowly filling with this month's orts.  I"ve added to the browns and golds from "O Jerusalem" with reds and greens from this months stitching. I worked up hearts and gave them away before I got a picture.  The Sampler is a freebie I had on file from the Leisure Arts page and I have wanted to add to my Saint Patrick's day decorations. I am also working on a "Come Unto Christ" for a gift to a family member and need to have it done by the end of the month. 
I got invited to a surprise baby shower earlier in the month and put these together for the new mother.  I need to get more done sense there are a few more babies due in April. 

This month's book club book, "Girl in Blue Dress", by Gaynor Arnold, is a story based loosely on the wife of Charles Dickens. So far it has been a great story. The events of his life are true and it is interesting to see how this influenced his writing. Now I am eager to read and re-read some of his books.  I do feel a bit sad for his wife and how she was treated through the years.
