My border met! So many one stitch errors I've made so far and yet the area of greatest risk for stitching screams is perfect. I'm surprised and delighted.

The tree is not centered yet, and I did find another error. The 8 should be five stitches wide, mine is four, add the one linen thread over to the right and that's 1.5 spaces off. No need to change that bottom area as I said, since those errors aren't causing other problems. The tree will be centered and the house needs to be thinner by one or two rows, reason not found. We're good! I love this little design and now I can move forward.
More good news - I finally found a site that offered the Paint program I know and love. It's back baby!! But I can't get Windows to accept the app and list it in programs. It's a little work to get in, but it's there.
My Varithena treatment went as expected. Hurt like hell. That's unusual for this procedure, area is numbed first, but inserting the cannula and especially the foam when entering the vein is scream worthy. This upsets the techs and docs when it's not expected, but not so much as the poor gastro surgeon listening to me yell during a colonoscopy without anesthesia.
This was the brighter pink of the peony that took years to bloom. My others are pastel. I had a ruffled bicolor but it croaked. Not easy to kill a peony, but I have talent.

Have a great day, be safe.

I had to go look up what Varathena treatment was. All that came to mind was Varathane, but that is (was?) a brand of varnish.
I finished your October Moon pattern yesterday. Sweet pattern and a nice stitch.
WOOHOOOOO on the border lining up! And finding your Paint program.
Yippeee!!!! Nothing like a matched up border...and yay on the Paint program as well. Beautiful peony. Unfortunately, I share your talent as far as they go. ~Robin~
Happiness is the God-wink of meeting corners.... What a lovely peony that had to be coaxed to
display its frills...So glad your Paint program is restored....I tend to think we would never
have heard the end of it otherwise, so it is with things that work for us and vanish. If it
ain't broke, don't fix it. Sounds like you have aced the day ...
A colonoscopy without anesthesia??? No thank you!!!
Yea!!! A border that meets calls for a cake! Or a cocktail!!
Marly you are mad/crazy to accept colonoscopy without anasthesia!!!
Hope you screaming was heard all over the place!
Hope my borders will meet also when finished with stitching these.
Take care and stay save, Truus from Holland
Loving your Mary sampler Marly - it really is just so pretty and your stitching (as always) is gorgeous. A colonoscopy without anaesthesia? That's NUTZZZZZ.
Greetings Marly: This is a lovely Sampler, I have made mistakes but go with the flow, I hate ripping out threads.
It will work out in the end.
I hated having my veins closed off, my doctor numbed my leg area, it did not hurt.
I hope you recover quickly.
Have a beautiful day my friend.

Hooray for borders that meet up and the other small pleasures in life. So glad your vein procedure is over--but, I'm sorry this one hurt so much. How often do you have to have it done? And you are one brave woman having a colonoscopy without anesthesia--the mere thought of it makes me weak-kneed! Hope you have a relaxing 4th of July. It will be a quiet one for us as my husband is still testing positive--lots of stitching and reading time for me here :)
