A Tribute to Judy 💕

Today would have been dear Judy's 80th birthday.
She passed away suddenly in November '18, and has been missed ever since. 


She was so crafty - sewing, quilting, crochet, and of course, cross stitch. You can see where Karen gets it!


We loved spending time with her whenever she was in the area.


Here is a sampling of what she's stitched. Christmas first since Karen had these displayed this past Christmas.
I'm pretty sure there's at least another one that need to be fully finished, maybe more?



Some ornaments on the tree.


Plump Santas!


More Santas to be full finished.


Some finishes, some still need help.


Karen needs to stitch these up.


This is one that was missing the chart, but luckily Karen found the magazine in one of the boxes.


This one is lovely, I hope she has the chart for this somewhere!


Ah, and here's a mermaid! I'm pretty sure she stitched at least one more, but I'm not sure where Karen has it hanging.


Another one for Karen to finish.


And another treasure.


She also stitched all these firetrucks, Karen's Dad is a retired firefighter.


This is one of her many amazing bags, Karen gave me this one for Halloween!


So dear Judy, we still miss you and treasure everything you've left behind... I especially treasure sweet Karen!

I've never lost anybody special to me, but can fully appreciate how you can continue to treasure them through not only memories but the tactile things they left behind. A lovely post in memory of a lovely person. :)
