Ahead of Schedule

Good morning.....

got lots of rain from the storm that is running up the coast..... badly needed here -- haven't had any for over a month.....

the piece that came to the top of my rotation pile was on the small side, so it got finished a few days early..... 'The Book Store' by Nikki Leeman of Country Cottage Needleworks..... it was fun to stitch, so here's the picture.... I made one small change to the center of the middle flower at the bottom of the design.... made it into a heart -- I love hearts!!!   it took 21 and a half hours to stitch:


six days till the 'Challenge' begins..... talk to you again soon and have a happy and healthy New Year.....

be well, Claire

I absolutely love this piece Claire. I have this design on my wishlist. It is beautiful. You did a wonderful job and of course changing the flower center into a heart is even more special.
Good jobby Claire.
Jackie.
