HAPPY NEW YEAR
2025 is the Year Of The Snake according to the Chinese zodiac, which is also followed in Japan.
This snake was made in May 2012, when I had just learned 17 new stitches in Sharon Boggon's TAST (Take A Stitch Tuesday). The orange markings of the snake are made with TAST #17 Crossed Buttonhole Stitch.
The snake is a symbol of prosperity and in these times of high inflation and endless price hikes, let's hope for a more stable economic situation in 2025.
I also wish that peace, stability and health will prosper all over the world.
My final wish is that Queenie's Needlework will be prosperous and that my quilting and embroidery will flourish.
HAPPY NEW YEAR to all my readers.
