I have this pretty zodiac birth sampler cross stitch that my mom made for me way back whenever.
I have always loved it and decided that I should make them for my daughters as well. So I hunted down the book and bought some supplies.
They came in the mail Saturday and I spent way too much time on Sunday stitching. I have some pretty flowers now though!
This first one is for Aubrey, and I haven't decided what I am going to put in the middle yet. I figured I would just start with the border and go from there. I am stitching it on 32 count linen 2 over 2 (the same as 16 count aida). I think it looks really nice so far. When finished it should fit nicely in an 11x14 frame.
