Gift for a friend....

Lizzie Kate "Friends Are..."
Stitched on 25ct w/ DMC

I stitched this for a very special lady at work who has been a lifesaver for me over the last three years! I was told she is very creative and so I know she would appreciate something handmade. I was going to make into a wall hanging for her to put in her cubicle but then decided to make it a small pillow. I love the combination of pink and green, especially a mossy green, so I love the colors in this one. It may be a little bright, but it will definitely match her personality and hopefully brighten her day!

Thanks for visiting and happy stitches.....
