it`s a wonderful tale of investigation, inspiration and work involving people banded together to bring 'Faith' (the name they gave the jacket) to life.

As for me...well, I am stitching 4 repro samplers at once(yes, i`m officially nuts!) and the wolves for hubby, as well as a rather large wedding sampler. Jane Turner, Mary Hurst, Sarah Harris, and the PatternBand Sampler (SL) and A Marriage of True Minds (DT). Sorry, no pics yet...I have been procrastinating about getting the camera out for some reason. Here are pics of the finished samplers from the various web sites:
