Summary AI

Jackie, host of Cross My Stitches, returns after a busy period dominated by quilting, which has cut into her stitching time. She shares three cross-stitch finishes: a trio of spring pears stitched on 36ct light khaki linen, a small Christmas piece called Noel from the JS Cross Stitch magazine, and the final piece from the Spring Trio by Brenda Gervais on 36ct RNR winter brew linen. She also shows her main WIP, This Is the Day by Plum Street Samplers, which she is thoroughly enjoying, especially the brickwork, and reports stitching 2,655 stitches in April and 589 so far in May.
