I made this for my college friend who visited me during christmas. These days, we occasionally meet with friends who live in another part of the country, so I really wanted to make something nice for her. I ended up making a cupid's arrow and engraved their initials. Of course, I put her initial first and then her husband's initial. My husband argued that it should have been his initial first. :)

Gifts made during Christmas
I made this as a wedding gift for my husband's friend. I didn't have much time to do it since I was taking care of my 6-month old alone at that time and they were leaving the country in a week. I simplified the design a lot, but came out wonderfully with the gold-decorated frame. They really loved it and were surprised my baby let me finish it in so less time.

Oldies
One of my initial cross-stitch favorites. It took me almost a year to finish this and it was because it was mostly half cross stitches. This continues to be one of my most favorites and hangs in my drawing room. The frame was from Ikea and it really accentuates the garden scenery.

My first ever cross stitch, turned out very beautiful.

My second cross-stitch, cute little kittens. Still figuring out a nice way to display this piece.

My sister made these pooh and eeyore disney cross stitches and they decorate my son's nursery and were the inspiration behind winnie the pooh theme for his nursery.
