Cross Stitch Quilt Shop

The past two Saturdays have found Emily and me at my mom's helping her clear out some stuff. And of course in among all the "stuff" are a lot of treasures. This is one of them that I got to bring home on Saturday. Mom cross stitched this many years ago and I just love it. Six of the little quilts were actually made separately and attached so they're dimensional. And look at the little fringe on the throw rug at the bottom! The fringes are dimensional too! Thanks so much mom! :0)

You are more than welcome. I am glad you can use it and enjoy it. It was put away at my house and no one saw it. It did hang for a long time.
