This may sound strange, but I feel sadness putting my last stitch and last button on this piece. No, it's not complicated or was difficult, but I really enjoyed stitching this small piece. Maybe it reminds me of my childhood on my grandparents farm. I spent many, many days and summers there - watching the sheep wander the fields and seeing the orchard bloom and then produce the most luscious pears and apples. I miss those days and stitching on this piece made me remember all the hours I spent outside there and in the barn building hay houses to relax in. I so miss those days and all the people I loved dearly. All are gone now but those memories are just as vivid as ever.
