Wife Made This For Me!
Hi All! Here is a pic of a bed spread my wife made for me a few years back and it took her a year or so to make it. All the animals were cross stiched! It is really beautiful to see in person! Johnny

Wow, that's a fine looking piece of work, you lucky devil!
The devotion required to attempt, let alone finish such a thing...
is only surpassed by the love in giving it away freely.
