Christmas Garden Finished

After almost 30 episodes of Dr. Quinn (the only doctor that doesn't make me stressed), Downton Abby, and several other episodes of various British series and/or movies, I finished Christmas Garden last night! Mind you, I can only stitch in the evenings, I get easily distracted, and I am up and down every few minutes for whatever, but since I started this in later January, I am happy that I already finished it.

I decided early on that I would not stitch the name of the design at the bottom, as charted. I tossed around different things that I could use to fill the space, but after much fretting, I went with Paulette's suggestion and just left it off and brought the border on around. I am very pleased with it. I have put all of my kids' initials--using the girls' maiden names--as well as mine and my dearly beloved's, so there are two of the PSK initials in there.

So what to do next..I might work on BBD Midnight Watch, since that one is about half stitched. I also want Turkey Love and Max & Z. Thank you so much for stopping by!

Christmas Garden

Could it be Feb 29th already? Seems like I just started Christmas Garden; and then again, it seems like I have been stitching on it for years. There are only four colors to this design..I love them, though I will admit that I thought it would have turned out more colorful. Still, I love this design and am enjoying most every stitch. Here is where I am at, and I feel certain the next time I get to post it will be finished.

Thank you so much for stopping by, and I really hope to get caught up on my favorite blogs soon.
