Welcome to
Mary's Thread!
I started this blog in 2016 to chronicle my stitching life. My Grandma M. taught me to cross stitch when I was 7 and I’ve had a project (or many!) going since then. I am mostly a cross stitcher who regularly makes forays into other types of embroidery. A lifetime ago I studied French and art history but now I fit my stitching around a busy life raising 5 kids with my wonderful husband. Thank you for spending some time at my blog!

This design is just what I like, a variety of pretty stitches in some of my favourite colours. The extra dash of lace and the heart charm add that extra romantic feeling to the piece. The frame is perfect too.
I know! I loved stitching this! I had it professionally framed (a splurge on such a little thing!) and she chose the frame and added the lace-perfect touches!
