a stitch in time saves nine

I've been affixiated with needlepointing ever since Jonathon Adler put it back on the radar a few years ago. It wasn't until I saw this photo of Renegade Handmade's In Stitches Showcase that I realized how chic a cross stitch sampler would look hung on a wall! I'm head-over-heels in love with this Mr. Darcy sampler and this silhouette sampler from etsy dealer thetimeisnow.
