Saturday Stitchings

Today, I am suffering from a nasty sore throat. It has been lingering for about 5 days now. I decided instead of just sitting here in front of the television, I would get out an old project.I bought this pattern several months ago and just can't seem to get too interested in it. The pattern is called Hester Van Dorn. I bought this because back in the family tree on my mother's side, there were Van Dorns. It is such an unusual name, I thought, this must surely have some connection. I haven't done any research to find out, but I am going to get working on this. Besides, maybe I can do a grained picture frame like I did in my tutorial.

    Sorry you're sick. Feel better soon.

    I like the pattern and the frame. There is a Confederate General who was named Gen. Earl Van Dorn. Is it a Dutch name?
