Quaker Garden - Day 6



Not the greatest photo, but another update. I'll probably continue working on this until I'm done, as it's an absolute pleasure to stitch and I don't see myself wanting to put it away. I've worked on it every day, but didn't do much at all on Tuesday & Thursday - or today. So it goes to show how quick it is to stitch up.

I was happy to see that Amelie Mauresmo won the ladies Championships at Wimbledon today. I didn't watch the Australian Open, but after hearing what happened there, I thought she really deserved this win more than Justin Henin-Hardenne (who I'm sure will have plenty more opportunities to win Wimbledon - she's a great player). She missed out on the feeling of winning that last point and the tournament at the Australian Open, which she finally got at Wimbledon today.

No offense to my French friends in any way, but I hope the French will be satisfied only with this sporting win this weekend and not anything else (see previous posts). :-)
