Top pic is Kaleidoscope Flower where I've finished the outer border and the lighter green border. I ran out of the darker variegated outer border thread (wouldn't you know it) so tried another variegated color to finish the interior--but if you look at pic #2 going from left to right that third dark color
doesn't work as well as I hoped. So I'll ripe that out while I wait for the correct color (ordered from Nordic Needle) to arrive. AND it was a good excuse to pick up the TW 12 days of Christmas. I've finished all of the "On the _ day and will begin to put in all the "of Christmas" along the right sides until all the words are done around the outside of each box. THEN I'll tackle the pictures inside. These are the projects I chose to finish this year for the 'finish what you've started' challenge. I almost quit a couple of times, but am now finding it very gratifying to quietly and purposefully stitch away at these UFO's with growing anticipation of crossing the finish line sooner rather than later!
may your fingers be flying...Peg
