Anonymous said...

Wow! Looks like a few in our midst have been quite impressed with this "little" project, and rightly so, might I add! I'm afraid that all of the usual adjectives have already been used, so perhaps I should go for something along the lines of: Astounding! Phenomenal!! And Superb!!! Truthfully, it's everything everyone has said and so much more.

Thanks for taking us along for the ride!

Lelia said...

WOOT!!! This is just beautiful : ) Job well done : )

Stephanie said...

Huge congratulations to you Carol, this is a stunning piece and I've enjoyed watching it come to life in your posts :) I look forward to seeing it all framed up and proudly hung on the wall.

Blessings,

Gorgeous! What a stunner this is. I've so enjoyed watching you stitch it. I am simply going to have to stitch this one...still don't have the pattern though. LOL! Guess I'll have to rectify that. Beautiful - congratulations!
