One Project Completed

Yes, one completed!  My personal Finish-It-Up Friday goal achieved.  It was hard.  I dislike sewing in a mess with so many other things that need doing:  2 curtain rods/curtains rehung, previous valances taken apart for disposal or free cycling, new furnace vent screwed in, glass shelves for china cabinet washed and boxes unpacked.  But I sewed.  For me, this is a big deal especially at the end of this horrible hot, dirty, messed up summer.  I got something done, off my sewing table, all sewed up and ready to be sent off.  I'm happy.  At times I considered giving it all up and selling my machines.  I may do that someday, but for now I am going to make a concerted effort to finish what I have here to do.

Here is a 12" wallhanging I will send to my daughter for her quilt stand.  She can put it up in May.  I am pleased with the way it turned out, but it took so much time totally.  I embroidered the squares last May I think.   I would like one of my own.

I changed the colors and order of the threads and am glad I took the time to do that.
