Very nice, Pam. Perfect choice of material too....even the stick! Liz

Beautiful, Pam! Did you finish it yourself? If so, nice job! 😊

Very lovely! The fabric around it is so pretty too.

Thank you all so much! This is the first time ever (with the exception of the pieces I have given) that I have ever shown my work to anyone. Yes, I did the finishing myself and the branch is a memory because it came from my house in Lawton, Ok that I loved so much. We had one tree in back and a mimosa tree in front. The tree in back shed a branch so when I was deciding on what to hang it on (maybe a dowel) I thought of my tree branch. So I have a memory piece from a place I loved so much. Pam

Really nice, Pam, and the material really sets it off. What a great idea with the stick.

Wonderful project, Pam! ☺

Thank you, V. I bought the pattern in Vail, CO who just happened to have a needlework shop. What is funny is that they had supposedly "antique" samplers for sale. I am with the Missouri people-show me. It isn't too hard to come up with a sampler that has been "aged". I guess I am just too cynical but they sure had a lot of antique samplers. Pam

You have to go by your own experiences and follow your instincts...you can run into nasties anywhere...even Colorado. ☺

That's a creative idea for displaying it.
