I finished a block for Rebecca in the CYOT RR. Her theme was mice. As I had absolutely nothing with mice, I paper-pieced a mouse:

The blackwork is beautiful. And that mouse. I was ROLF!!! Too darn cute. What a fun and creative idea.
The garden photos are beautiful. I can almost smell the flowers!
And yes, the spaghetti looks yummy, too. :-)
Thanks Gerry, appreciate the comments!
WOW! That Blackwork piece is to die for!!! I've done one or two pieces by Just Nan and your work is just beautiful.
Loved your garden photos ....
Looked like the little fella enjoyed his spaghetti!!!!!!
Love the blackwork, the Iris is my favorite, what a wonderful piece.
Normal and Gail, thanks for the comments. I wanted to do that piece for years now. It was in an old that May/June 1991 Cross Stitch and Country Crafts Magazine. So now you know how much I procrastinate!
