Just a few pictures
Hope everyone is well and enjoying a beautiful autumn.
It is busy around here at the moment as we are in the final stages of preparing our on-line stores for Christmas. That means many hours at the computer each day - so when evening comes I grab for my stitching or a good book and put blogging on a back burner. I do promise to visit everyone again soon and in the meantime will treat you to a few pictures.
'Dutch Beast' was completed this past week after 1 year and 5 months. What a great project this was and I love the result. I did make a few changes - included the name of the city we presently live in and changed the Fresian initials to my own. Thanks Annemarie for lending me "Letterdoeken" by Jose Sterrenburg.

Although my Janome is still giving me problems I have managed to sit down, relax and slowly but surely mount and frame another finished project. 'Pumpkin Patch by PS is now gracing my kitchen island.
Last but not least a progress picture of 'My Lady'
Hope to drop by and see all of you again soon.

Dutch Beast is beautiful Margaret. What a huge undertaking. Congrats on a job well done.

Love the color in your new stitch.
Good luck with the setup of your stores.
Gorgeous, gorgeous finishes!!!
It's gorgeous! Congrats!
Hi Margaret! Wow oh wow to Dutch Beast. I hope to start it soon. I think your letters turned out great. Did you have a hard time making them the correct count? I just love Pumpkin Patch too. You have been on a finishing roll lately. So what about WIPs? Do you even have any? :-)

I just love the pumpkin patch. Just because I am fond of pumpkin to begin with.
Dutch Beast is absolutely stunning. I clicked and looked at all the little things and there is so much to see. What a wonder... I can't wait to see it framed.
Lovely job at framing the pumpkin patch. It's such a beautiful design and the right time to have it framed and hanged in your home.
Well, I know how hectic things must be at work, so wishing you all the best with it...
Lots of love, my dear dear friend,

PS: Your lady's coming along very nicely!
Such a gorgeous sampler. Congrats on finishing it.
Beautiful finishes! Your DB is magnificient.
Gasssp... Your finishes are SO beautiful, Margaret. You know how much I love Dutch Beast and your intials look perfect.
I must admit I haven't tried my hand at your framing method yet, but surely my own framing could never looks as beautiful as yours. Love the PS sampler!
Dutch Beast is so beuatiful. Congratulations, also for finishing that wonderful PS piece.
Great progress!
They all look great, and Pumpkin looks wonderful all framed up.
