I have finally finished my cross stitch picture this week. It's absolutely gorgeous, you will have to check it out. Micah had a four day weekend, so we have been busy choosing colors, matting, and framing. I saw this pattern on Bent Creek's website a few years ago, and had to stitch it. The way they did this picture is you buy each individual square separately, and then when you have all six squares you can get the border and stitch all of them together to make a town. It has been really fun to do. If you haven't noticed the picture has snaps sewn into every square, and that is how the town got it's name of Snapperville. So, as Amber probably already knows, every time we go up to Idaho I have to stop in Ogden and go to Shepherd's Bush because the cross stitching stuff they have is just gorgeous. So I was up there earlier this year, and they have the Snapperville picture on display along with some of the other pictures from this series, and at the top of the display is this sign that says: "Have you snapped?" I smile every time I read it.
We have a lot of activities going on this week, so I will be sure to keep you all posted. Have a great week, and enjoy your Thanksgiving.

Wow, Jen! Your cross-stiches are amazing! I really like the snapperville.
Crazy cross stitching lady person! That does look way cool though. I would screw it all up if i tried to do it.
