This was such a joy to stitch from start to finish. I don't know if it was the fabric or the silk or the sparkle of the beads or the fact that this entire kit was a surprise gift from a dear stitchy angel friend, but I do know that it was completely wonderful.
Rich commented that I had a peaceful smile on my face every time I played with this, and that's exactly what I will remember every time I look at it...peace and happiness.

ReplyDeleteConnie - I've watched this wonderful project from the very beginning! Congratulations on a grand and gorgeous finish. I know that you have many many complicated things going on in your life - - - but I do love to see a devoted Stitcher, in spite of "all that" just getting on with things and producing stunning work. You're a credit to stitchers everywhere!
ReplyDeleteSo beautiful! You are inspiring me to do this project, but it's so expensive. I think it will be well worth it, though!

ReplyDeleteIt's so beautiful! It always amazes me that just a needle and thread can bring such happiness and peace, even - perhaps especially - in such difficult times. Perhaps it would make a comfy, cuddly throw pillow for the Big Girl Sleigh Bed?
ReplyDeleteWOW, Just WOW!!!! Congratulations on a beautiful finish!!!!
ReplyDeleteConi-what a beautiful piece! Congrats on the finish!
ReplyDeleteSo pretty. Stay warm. I'm thankful the vortex didn't stretch to CO and fell bad for those being affected.
