Hand Stitched

 

 

At one time I was heavily into crosstitching.  It is a nice portable craft that has served me well waiting through countless hours of waiting.  Waiting for children to get out of band practice, off work, ER visits, and long hours waiting while loved ones were in surgery.  Needless to say it was a very busy season in our lives.  I had a friend that faithfully worked to keep me sane.  I stitched this for her more than ten years ago.  Recently she posted this picture on social media.  Her little way of reminding me that she's still with me as I start the next round of waitings.
