A Big Finish in 2019!

Y'all I have a big finish - And They Sinned!  I'm shocked that I stitched it so fast.  I was obsessed.  I started this in May of this year along with a couple of other things and I finished December 27, 2019! Shocked!  It is SO hard to get a good full photo of this project but here it is!
And They Sinned (OOP)
36 Count Picture This Plus Legacy
Called for Threads (mostly)
I'd be very remiss to not thank Robin in Virginia here as she came to my rescue when I had serious dye lot changes for a thread in that green grass section at the bottom.  She had some of the older dye lot and a Victorian Motto that matched perfectly.  Thank you Robin!  I couldn't have done it without you and you eliminated my frustration with your generosity!

Wishing you all happy stitches for 2020!

Jackie your work is beautiful!!!! I have been reading blogs but not posting so thought I would take a minute. Mu shoulder is still a BIG work in progress, Dr. says a year for recovery fr this surgery, I want to sew but can't lift it enough yet. I also loved your Mini quilt for your Mom, what a special thought for you to do for her. I know it is a hard journey but you have ore strength than you can imagine! Sending you love and good thoughts, Marie

Jackie, This is Gorgeous1!! I cannot imagine how you stitched it so quickly and still got other stitching completed. All that green on the bottom was very time consuming. Did you stitch everything else first and then fill in with the green? Robin is a kind hearted person and it does not surprise me that she helped you out. Your fortunate that she had the same dye lot on hand. I love this stitch and I hope you frame it to enjoy.
