Dog's Love WIP and New Piece

I've been working on this new kit I bought. You can see it down a few posts. It's really moving along quickly. I'm hoping to find a cute frame with a dog theme. I know I've saw them before and always thought I should do something with one. Now's my chance.

The internet is such an amazing thing. I've been online forever it seems and when I found cross stitching groups on yahoo I instantly made friends for life with some people. One of those ladies is Elaine. We just seemed to get along. We were in a few yahoo groups together and then we wouldn't talk for a long time and then somehow we would find another group and be in it together again. She started her blog the same year I started mine (2007) and it's just funny she's just always there. Well since Facebook we have been able to get even closer which I'm really thankful for.

So anyway I was browsing 123stitch to add things to my wish list and saw a new pattern. I added it to my wish list thinking sometime it would be a fun thing to stitch up. Next thing I know Elaine is posting to FB how she much she likes the pattern. So I suggested we do it together as a SAL (Stitch Along). We will pick a day of the week and work on it that day. So now we are both looking forward to stitching this fun pattern.

I'm sure you'll find a great frame for your doggie design! How fun to have a SAL day with a stitchy friend! You picked a wonderful chart!

You're so sweet Katie! I'm so glad we became friends and it must be fate that we stay friends since we kept finding each other. :) Looking forward to starting on Paradise! I didn't know you had seen it and thought about stitching it before I posted it! How funny! I guess great minds really do think alike. :D
