Here is the piece all finished!
And here is a close up of the Nowegian flags and my signature.
It felt great to have another finish under my belt this year! But I'm really happy because I've had this kit gathering dust in my stash for a few years and now it is complete...well the stitching is anyways. I have a grand plan to do some quilting in the shapes of Norwegian flags to make the underside of the table runner but then it got put on hold. This is my very first time working on linen and using Pearle Cotton to stitch was but I found stitching this piece really enjoyable! I think the simple design and big blocks of color helped too. Well I hope everyone has a great weekend!
Happy Stitching!
Congratulations on a beautiful finish. Specially as it was an old piece and first time with linen.
ReplyDeleteThank you Mini. I realized I had an irrational fear of linen that I am now over :)
DeleteCongratulations! It looks great!
ReplyDeleteThanks Meg!
DeleteCongrats on the finish! It's fantastic. I've never done anything that long - I can't even imagine how much time that took! :D
ReplyDeleteThank you Sarah :) it was two over one so it went a bit quicker. I think this is my largest piece, it narrowly beats my owl growth chart for my daughter.
DeleteIt looks great, well done!
ReplyDeleteThank you Mii :)
