    Love the stitches you put together. What a masterpiece. You might be the next Sue Spargo!!! HelenW
    LOL, Helen! You are so gracious! I did some crewel & cross-stitch years ago, but this hand embroidery is a first for me and I think I am hooked!
    It turns out Sue Spargo's store is only about 45 min. from me in Ohio. I am anxious to go there this summer.

      Suzanne, Take your embroidery piece when you go to the Sue Spargo shop. I am sure they will be impressed.
      Lucky you to have her store so close. HelenW

      There is a known problem on the site, it is being fixed, hopefully soon.
