1st 2007 Finish
Well it is not quite the end of the week and I have my first finish of 2007. On Tuesday evening, I put the final stitches into Rose and I can now call this done and get it off my list. Yippee!!!!!
Here it is in all its beauty. I will be hanging this in the bathroom as my bathroom is blue (not my choice) and pale yellow (my choice). Here are the details and some of them are gory because of my start date on this. LOL
Rose by Heritage Stitchcraft UK (kit)
Done with DMC on 28 ct. white evenweave (I think Jobelan)
Started: August 8, 2005
Finished: January 23, 2007
This poor project has been rotated, put away and forgotten about in those 2 years. It was not a hard stitch at all. Life and new stitching projects got in the way.
Last night, I pulled out Tesori and put it back in the q-snaps. I had plans on starting the next border of "Trentino" but got sidetracked with school stuff and household stuff. I am hoping tonight to get a start on the next region. The weather is going to get downright nasty around here and I would not be surprised if school is closed tomorrow because of the ice that will form overnight from a snow shower we are supposed to get around rush hour. I so hope so if the weather is bad. I hate driving on ice. It is one of my worst fears.
I am trying to get household chores done today and so far I have accomplished quite a bit. I would love a free weekend. I haven't had a chore-free weekend since before Thanksgiving and I am hoping to have that this weekend.
Have a great day everyone!!

It's lovely, Mia! I'm with you about driving on ice. Actually I've only been driving since just after Joshua was born, so I really don't trust myself to drive in snow.
What a pretty piece...I loved watching the progress you made..
I am not a fan of winter driving either.Three weeks ago we had a huge ice storm and I hurt my car sliding into the curb as tried to stop and wrote of the tire rim.I leave the winter driving to hubby.
Mia it turned out just gorgeous!!! Congrats on the wonderful finish! I just love it!
Rose is beautiful! WOW!
Hunker down and get some good stitching done in that nasty weather - I think we're in for another round of it next week!
Congrats on your first finish!
