Stitcher's Prayer
a1a18754
Cross-stitchers are a different breed ~
The things we hope for, the things we need,
We wish for floss to finish that row.
We sometimes wish our guests would go.
We wait all day for that time to be ~
That special time ~ that time me ME.
Each needle is threaded, the colors arrayed,
Scissors and chart have been carefully laid.
Now we relax, this is our pleasure ~
Stitching this piece of soon-to-be treasure.
We always ignore that mental warning ~
Stitching all night makes it rough in the morning.
But time's unimportant, we don't heed clocks ~
We just need floss and a sewing box.
Our project awaits us, now we proceed.
This must be heaven ~ what could we need!

It already is a chart, or rather kit. I have it at home and if anyone is
further interested I can dig it out and let you know what company. I got
mine throught the STitchery catalog about a year ago.

I believe this was originally published in Cross Stitch & COuntry
Crafts magazine a couple of years ago, and I think it was entitled
the "Cross Stitchers Creed", but I wouldn't swear to it .... it just
sounds *real* familiar.

I have this as a chart. It is done by Cross Stitch and Country Crafts and
is called 'Stitcher's Verse.' (chart #02118.)
Hope this helps (and hope I did this right - this is my first time to post
here! <G>)
