I was looking around the house and spied this old favorite, a music sampler I made for my mother in law quite a while back. She's gone now, and this came back to me. I've always loved it. I know it's stitched on Aida--or maybe this is called fiddler's cloth?--and I know the colors are probably from "yesterday"! (And I actually changed to those colors from the chart--you should have seen that!!!!) Anyway, I love this and have it in my living room near the piano. I've always used green in my home--I feel it's a neutral, like the leaves in nature. I think these colors blend with what I have now and I enjoy seeing it when I'm in there!

Do you have any old favorites, still hanging around, that make you happy?

Love it! I have a couple that I made for my mom and dad which have returned to my house and they are among my favorites.
This is lovely what a great gift to have been returned to you.
I love green my sewing room has light very light green carpet with a hint of green on the walls, such a refreshing color where I live especially in winter.
Happy Stitching

Beautiful. I have several pieces my dear mother stitched and they now hang proudly on our walls. A daily reminder of her love and patience.
