Check Twice - Stitch Once

Even stitchers can benefit from spell checkers ... what a difference one little letter can make.
I stitched this 8.5 x 11 inch pillow for my husband many years ago when he was in the Navy and about to deploy for a 6 month run, and at times it was tough that he was not there ...

I love the words on the pillow.
Where did you get them?
Lovely stitching.

Awww!!

That is the neatest little pillow and saying.

It speaks volumes about your love for him.

As a romance writer, I can really appreciate such sentiment. And as a wife, well, I just think that's really cool that you did it for your hubby. I'm sure it meant a lot to him.

BTW, I love your stitching. Lovely work.

Mel,
I really don't remember where the poem came from. I did some 15 years ago. David took it with him when the Navy deployed his boat to the Mediterranian for a 6 month toor.
