You've probably heard the phrase "passing it forward," when a person who's benefited from a good deed repays it with another to someone else. Well, this is a case of "pointing it forward."
A cyber-friend recently decided that she was unable to continue stitching due to arthritis in her hands and was looking for a good home for her stash. She asked me if I would like a canvas--Herald Angel designed by Judy Harper--and I responded with an immediate and resounding "Yes"!
I recall Judy showing this canvas on her blog as an example of one of the angel designs she had created for Texas First Lady Anita Perry to grace the Christmas tree in the Governor's Mansion. This angel was one of the last canvases that Judy painted as her health declined. I'll be blog-stitching it so it can join the rest of my angel collection next Christmas, hopefully finished as a stand-up mounted on a dowel in weather vane fashion. If anyone knows of a finisher who could do this, just email me or leave a comment.

Sue Parsons of West Coast Finishing did a Christmas ornament for me on a dowel with a base. It looks great. Here is her website--http://westcoastneedlepointfinishing.com
