For Lil' Swee' P
Last night I finished stitching 'By the Sea' for sweet little P. With all the quarter stitches required this project took a bit longer than I had originally planned (worked on it on and off for 16 months).
'By the Sea' part of the Collector's Series from the February 2003 edition of Cross Stitch
stitched 2/2 on 28 ct ecru lugana with DMC floss
Oh my goodness - now I only have two WIPs. Is this truly possible? Decisions! Decisions! Do I keep it at two and try and get SIL's lighthouse finished by Christmas or do I start a new piece during our Sip 'n Stitch at Annemarie's this coming Tuesday? That would mean I could start a Christmas piece for myself. Must give this some thought.
Hope you are all having a great weekend.

That is cute. Was that part of a triology in a magazine years ago? I think I just posted another piece in that triology I did. Great job on yours.
Wow, that really looks wonderful!
So cute!!!
I'm off for the holidays tomorrow and just popped in to say Hi;-D
Beautiful finish. I'd vote for starting a new project to go in your WIP mix.

I remember seeing that design thinking it was so cute. You are a better woman than me...I seen the quarter stitches and move on to something else! Great job Margaret!
Such a sweet finish!! Congrats!
So sweet! Is this piece for yourself? It is a fun summer one. Congratulations on the finish!
Now we know we have our 'HarmAn' days so we can start a new project. Both Harmien and Annemarie are teh queens of starts I think.
It was so much fun to see you again yesterday!
Hugs ~

I did that series (well on my way to finishing the last). Your efforts look gorgeous, Margaret.
So sweet and lovely, congrads on your finished
Such a sweet finish! Congrats! Only two wip's? I wish it were me. I seem to have issues with completion these days!
Such a nice finish! Congratulations. No wonder that it took a while to stitch it as the whole picture is covered with stitches not to speak about those fractional stitches that you mention. Great job.
