Inspiring Way to Celebrate!

Amy, of Inspire Company, creates these uber cute grid samplers.
In honor of her upcoming 39th birthday, she is stitching a 39 square sampler.
She stitches one square each day.
What a wonderful way to celebrate!  Just a few stitches each day!

Of course, it is always more fun to celebrate with friends.

So, she invited others to join her and stitch 39 squares, too!

There are now about 100 participants in the 39 Square Stitch Along.

Oh, and just a note -- there will be more bonnets with frills upon them between now and Easter!

    How pretty. I had noticed several embroidered squares on flickr but didn't know what the deal was. Now I do. So cute and inspiring. Makes me want to do one. But I would need a lot more than 39 squares, so maybe I won't.

    I would need to add 17 squares in order to do this for my birthday this year. That means about 2.5 more weeks worth of stitching.
    The stitching might not be bad. It would be getting my aging brain to come up with 56 ideas to stitch!
