Birthday and Baby Shower Cross Stitch

Here are the cross stitch I did for birthday gifts:

For my oldest, dearest friend:
I love the saying in this one!

Now for my sisters (their birthdays are 10 days apart)


I sent this bookmark off with a scrap booking book:


Yesterday I went to my first baby shower in nearly 20 years. The mother-to-be has the nursery set up with a Noah's Ark them, so I stitched this elegant Just Nan piece for her shower gift (another gift had been sent from her registry):


This was the first Just Nan design that I have stitched. This designer is a cross-stitcher! There is an ease and smoothness stitching designs that a fellow cross-stitcher has done. I have more of her designs to stitch and I am looking forward to doing them.

But right now - it's a Noah's Ark baby sampler I'm working on...
