Cornwall Cottage Sampler Distraction

You can't do big things if you're distracted by small things Picture Quote #1
I didn't mind the distraction today as it was a visit from the delightful Harlee and his mummy and daddy.  He's not quite crawling yet but he can roll around and sit himself up with ease and managed to find his way to my cross stitch projects.  I wonder if he has a sneaking suspicion that I am working on something for him and he was checking to see how I was getting on with it!  The project holder was a lovely Christmas gift from of my crafting friends.
Before they had arrived I had managed to work on the Cornwall Cottage Sampler for an hour or so.  When they left I was able to pick it up again and made steady progress on the final motif on this page and the internal border.
I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I will be able to work on it quite a bit next Sunday and get that motif complete and finish another page of this delightful piece.
