A cross-stitch that says
"Many hands make light work"

I love it and have sewn it onto a piece of homespun. I have a black frame set aside for it, and am hoping to get to that tomorrow. I need another saying ..someting simple and sweet ..short and to the point, just like this one to make as a match to go with it since I have two identical frames. Thought I'd do something..ya know..semi-matching.
SOOOoo any ideas on old fashioned sayings, similar to the one above..would greatly be appreciated!

I truly love stitchings, I could work on them every day myself! I am working on 3 at a time right now, similar colors so as I change colors I do all 3 and it goes well. I prefer to do all my printing in black, so always start there, have my favorite greens and burgundy, a nice prim blue, a perfect shade of brown, a burnt orange, and for the most part they work on all of them! Then when I tea dye them I do them all at once, and spend some time framing. I keep quite a stock of various sizes of frames, always look for them when I'm out and about. The ones that my friend made I painted black for most, so they are ready too.

Gotta love stitchin'!!
