And a finish

 After stitching these I came to an abrupt halt trying to follow the instructions for completing them.   Indeed I almost consigned them and the chart to the rubbish but an epiphany in the wee small hours of the night and some grim determination and all six are complete.



And my “take out” project also got completed.   Next year I will start another - that system of a project only stitched at other places was taught me by a friend and seems to work well.

Now I’m back to working on a longer term project and it is progressing so maybe before year end I will have it done as well.    There’s such a lot to do outside and so many activities on this time of year that some days I don’t even put in a single stitch.   Not good enough Margaret!

Hi Margaret: I like the little finish's they are so sweet, I have problems sometimes thinking about finishing but a break always helps to collect my thoughts.

They turned out great! I have a take along project for stitching only when away from my “nest”. It’s always a needlepoint project as that is easy to see regardless of lighting. I am too lazy to take along lighting😁
