Winter, yule, winter solstice - whatever you call it has arrived .... if you're wondering how we've celebrated in the past you can read about it here.
Do you see what I see - it's stitched on 18ct - I haven't stitched on anything but 14ct for years - I must have my second sight. ^^
Back in the late 90's I was living elsewhere and was a volunteer at one of the local personal care homes - I loved it. One of the ladies who lived there, Dolly, was an avid reader and I mentioned to her how amazing it was for a lady of her age (late 80's) who did so much reading and didn't need eyeglasses - her response was "oh, I've got my second sight". I didn't understand then but have an inkling now of what she meant. Oh, the stories I could tell about my time spent at this PCH - it was a lot of fun!

Beautiful piece for today. I am nearsighted but for some reason, close up is blurry now and i can see further better, lol.
Most of mine is lyme related, so some days I can see fine and others I have to wear my glasses.

So pretty, Kate--perfect for the winter season. Glad you are able to see to stitch on 18ct. I am very nearsighted and can see perfectly up close so I simply take off my glasses or take out my contacts to stitch :)
A wonderful design to stitch. For the past couple of years I have taken my glasses off to stitch, I find it so much more clearer.
What a sweet Yule piece you stitched, Kate! Enjoy your day!
Such a lovely stitching, Kate! Wishing you and yours a blessed Christmas!
Love your stitchery. Second sight. I know that my vision is swapping places, distance getting better, close getting worse. Does that mean I get to wait for it to switch back? LOL
The Primitive Hare has such lovely designs. Great stitching on this reindeer. And great that you get the second sight, too :)))
