I love my mama, and my mama loves me

This arrived in the mail the other day, my Christmas gift from my mom. Pretty, isn't it? My mother is the biggest reason I do any sort of hand work. She's been knitting and cross stitching forever, I think. She doesn't quilt, and thank goodness! I don't need the competition.

And this is what's on its way to her. This year I just didn't have time to make somethig for her. Not for Christmas. I love making things for my mom, who appreciates the time involved in hand made things. Merry Christmas, Oma. I love you very much!
