My First Cross Stitch Project


I was going through a drawer filled with all sorts of items, and came across this sachet. It's the very first cross stitch project I made back in 1984 when I was pregnant with my daughter. It no longer has the rose scent, but I think it looks just as pretty. I'm going to untie the bag and add a drop of rose oil to the potpourri inside (which is in a small bag to protect the linen). It now has a special place on my dresser :)

This is so sweet Joanne! And made even more precious by knowing it was your first piece and you were pregnant with your daughter at the time. Enjoy using it once again...
