Birthday Creation from my Lauren

Purple, Purple Everywhere
I turned 51 this month and Lauren made this cut-work card for me. It was way too incredible to relegate to a page of my scrapbook--so I framed it. I will put it up with the other artwork that her dad, sister and brother (and she) have already fashioned. She also wove me a basket, accented in purple, and so I'll hang the two of them together.
I have gotten a lot of my hand-work finished since I have been laying on the couch waiting for my knee to begin to heal. There aren't any spectacular cuts or gashes to show off for all of the time I am restricted from doing the things that I love. I will have to be satisfied with the needlework I've done and the creations Lauren has sent.
