This is  a gorgeous gift my wonderful friend Dawn gave me from her stash…..It’s a Cinderberry Stitches design she had, all sewn up and traced, and then fell out of love with it so passed it on to me!  I haven’t had a chance before now to start but Friday was the day….I adore it….and to make it even more special, I get to feel closer to her, even though she lives thousands of miles away!  It brings a smile to my face and a warm feeling in my heart every time I pick it up!

What a wonderful tag that last one is. It's so true! I love Cinderberry Stitches, so I think you are fortunate indeed to have Dawn pass that along to you and your lovely ankles. =)

My sweet friend, Wishing you and yours a blessed, Merry Christmas. You are fortunate to have a friend that loves you enough to share. It is a sweet design. Ankles - not bad :)
Enjoy your holidays. Love'n'hugs.
