SWEET LITTLE FIND

It is Saturday morning and I have SPRING on my mind!  It is beautiful here in North Carolina!
The sky is a brilliant blue and the sun is shinning bright!



My sweetheart and I went out to eat breakfast this morning, as we normally do.
We eat at the same little neighborhood place and see many of our same Saturday morning friends!
While enjoying our coffee we got a little itch and decided to go check out an antique shop or two! 





Having SPRING on my mind and a love for PANSY'S, this sweet little piece "called my name!"


The frame has a shabby and wood detail with just a touch of gold, the perfect look for this sweet little Pansy stitching...don't you think! 





Thank you for visiting!  Please leave a comment so I'll know you did...and see below for the chance to win!

Blessings,

    Hi Cindy,
    what a delightful find. Your pansy stitching is absolutely gorgeous, and I think the frame couldn't be anymore perfect. Can't wait to see where you put it.
    Happy Valentines day to you,
    Blessings Abundant, Nellie

    Love your new pansy needlepoint. I would have definitely have bought it if I'd been out and about like you were yesterday. It's been a bit warmer here and I noticed yesterday that my Pansies were perking up a bit. Spring will be here before we know it!

    That is so pretty. Hubby would take me to breakfast but wait while I looked in an antique store. Not his cuppa tea.

    I think this find was a total no-brainer. I'm glad you got it. Who doesn't like pansies? Up north we have a while to wait for Spring...thanks for the first taste!

    Oh that is too sweet. I would have snatched that one up. Very pretty frame.... Pansies have a long way to come up here under our 2 ft. of snow... but I can't wait to see them again..

    Pansies always do seem to be the herald of spring. I found a little wild one blooming in my garden last week. My first flower of the year!
    What a great find in that needlework! I adore the round frame.

    Oh what a lovely find! We still have lots of snow on the ground, so no real pansies for me yet, but this is such a beautiful reminder of what will come... :)

    Cindy- What a sweet needlepoint of pansies! Love the traditional blues... They're one of my favorite flowers. Isn't it fun to find something nice while antique or thrift shopping?
