In between my family history hunting, I made a few little gifts for Christmas. I just finished these up yesterday:
It's been awhile since I did any cross stitch and I thought a few little simple projects would be fun! For the bottom two, I hand dyed my own fabric. All of the trims are hand crocheted. These were fun to do so I may do a couple of cross stitch ornaments for Valentines Day.
On the genealogy front, I'm stuck!!! It seems that all the "stuckness" revolves around my great grandmother. I have my father in law's family all the way back to 1500's England but I can't find my great grandmother's birth certificate, death certificate or burial place to save my life! I know where she died, what she died from and when she died. I know when she was born and according to the 1900 and 1910 census, she was born in Michigan. But nothing is written in stone until I have a vital document so the search continues!
