After several unhappy years of not stitching, I'm back!
My eyesight was bad and the glasses I was prescribed didn't really help. So, I stopped stitching. I came close to giving away my stash but kept hoping that my eyes and my desire would start to come round.
Recently, Happy Husband bought me a new Ottlite Alexander Table Lamp. It's fantastic -- I can SEE!
I decided to finish an old WIP, Celtic Heart, before I took on a new, bigger project.
Celtic Heart is from M-Designs. I'm stitching it on 32 Lugana with Vikki Clayton's HDF Lavender and Pink.

Progress as of June 10th:
I'm about slower than I was 5 years ago, but I am working steady for as long as I can.
I am more content, happier, and less stressed than I was just one week ago. Stitching will do that for you... it's a great comfort.
I'm glad to be back.

Welcome back! I like the thread colors you are using for your stitch. I wish Vikki was still dyeing silks. Your light looks super.
Congratulations!! Been through something similar so I am very very happy for you :)
Welcome back, Terri!
