Completed Cross Stitch - Linda K. Powell's "Live Each Day with a Happy Heart"

 

 

This is a very old pattern that I found through eBay that was originally published in the '80s.

Do I mind admitting that I have the hugest crush on Linda K. Powell's artwork? No, not at all. But I am very sad that such a wonderful animal artist died at such a young age. Not fair!

I hope you enjoy this completed work and look up Linda's artwork (and yes, dyed this fabric myself too).

Completed Cross Stitch - Gloria and Pat's "The Grizzly Bear" - Endangered Young'uns

Another Gloria and Pat design, "The Grizzly Bear" and yup, I "smooshed" this one into a frame too! I have made about 3 other G & P designs in this series and gave them away as presents and never took a photo. Digital photography wasn't much of a reality at the time I made a lot of the gifts but I would love to see what I made again though....*sigh*
