This time it is Dimensions Gold Collection Millenium Angel. A sort of long story. My son used our cottage for an office party, and one of the ladies saw my handiwork hanging on the walls. Somehow my son said that I finished off projects for other people, and now I have the latest. She has done just a small part in the middle of the piece. It is on 16 count aida (ugh!!!), but at least she crossed the stiches the "right" way. When I start I will have to work my way to the top right hand corner, and then make it a project the way I like to do it. Jim.
New UFO to finish off.

I used to do a lot of knitting and designing, and people began bringing me their problems -- YECH! Sometimes I could talk them through the solution, which was just fine. Most times, however, they had gotten themselves into a horrible mess and I wound up doing repairs, extreme frogging, and finishing -- thanks to my mother, who would tell her friends "my daughter can do that for you" and then show up at my house with a bag of godawful whatever.
My stepmom has done that a time or two. Luckily, I have no problem telling her I couldn't possibly.

I guess I was lucky. My mother was quite an accomplished needleworker, knitter and seamstress and, therefore, knew better then to do that. She hated being asked and was sure I would hate it as well.
