My most beautiful work to date


Here is my musical needlepoint canvas, finished and framed! What a joy it was to stitch!

Your needlework is beautiful! I loved the kimonos from your previous posts, and the musical motifs in this one. It's gorgeous! Great frame, too!

this is so lovely, what beautiful colours but I love the purples and mauves. It must have taken you a long time to finish its so detailed.

5th Anniversary of the Stroke

Nearly 5 years ago, I suffered a stroke that left me with numbness and lack of coordination of my right hand and arm. For awhile, I could not speak normally, and I couldn't say my husband's name. With time and occupational and massage therapy, sensation began to return. My speech cleared up within the month. I relearned how to brush my teeth and hair, how to butter toast, how to handle a fork. I used a speech program on the computer for several months, because my right hand could not type. I am very grateful for the lessons I learned from this experience. After 5 years, a person is considered to be at no increased risk of having another CVA (cerebrovascular accident). That's my upcoming milestone!
