Love is All You Need......(437)

I'm very late posting today because we left early to drive my parents home and have finally, after lots of Friday afternoon traffic, arrived home. Whew!!!

But this worked out well since I wanted to share a piece I did for my parents and couldn't find a photo here at home. Today is a special day for my parents, as well as our family, as it is their 66th wedding anniversary. On their 50th anniversary, I stitched a sampler for them. It is Honor Thy Father by R&R Reproductions. I changed the design to say 'honor thy parents', added myself and my siblings and motifs that would mean something to them and/or stood for the qualities in their marriage. 



Here they are on their wedding day, cutting the cake!


Thanks for stopping by and your "twisted threads" of friendship!

    1. Yes, the dress is was satin. My Mom has always wanted someone to wear it, but she was so darn tiny, its hard to find someone to fit.

  5. Happy Anniversary to your parents, Stasi, they are so very blessed, as are you and your siblings to be able to celebrate 66 years together.
    Your sampler is gorgeous and looks wonderful for having been stitched 16 years ago...wow! I love how you made it personal by making changes to the motif...what a brilliant idea.
    I also adore the wedding pic, thank you for sharing it. Look at your Mom's dress...it's gorgeous, as is your Mom, and your Dad looks so dapper in his tuxedo...what a treasure!
    Have a very Happy New Year
    Hugs
