Closer and Closer


I first posted about this project in June 2009 and in July 2009. My attention waned, and life got in the way. Again, it was stuffed in a drawer. When I stumbled across the project in December, I decided that enough was enough and that it was time to finish this piece.

I've been working on it off and on for a couple of weeks. Now, the actual stitching is finished and all that remains is to backstitch, launder, iron, and add the beads for the holly berries. Hopefully, this project will be finished soon and I can get it framed and off of my UFO list.

  4. Very beautiful....but, you've reminded me I've got a finished piece to wash and take to the framer, too. Life does get in the way...it's been finished for over a year now. (I think I'm procrastinating because I'm afraid the frame is going to be expensive even if I do the lacing myself.)
