April 5, 2005 to November 20, 2005 in my rotation, and as a SAL with Nikki, Legends of the Dragons is now done. I stitched this on 32 ct Dragon Myst lugana by Heaven Lee Creations, and used one strand of Storm Clouds waterlilies for the knotwork border, backstitched with DMC 823. Last I saw, Nikki was down to the final stretch too! Can't wait to see hers as well!! (Click on the photo for a larger version - Mike took this for me today, and I think he did a great job!!).Patriots 24 - Saints 17 - finally, back to back wins for the Pats! LOL! And, Ryan Newman ended his season with a decent finish - he was 7th at Homestead, which is good because his average finish there is usually in the 20's - he ended still 6th in points. Tony Stewart is now the 2005 NASCAR Nextel Cup Champion. Congratulations Tony.
Stitched on today: Legends of the Dragons - Happy Dance!!

Hey! it's a nice feeling to FINISH something.
Besides wondering what you do with all your finished projects, I'm curious how much time you allot per day to work on your cross stitch.
I'm new to reading your blog, so if I'm asking stuff you've already answered, it's only because I didn't know.
Congratulations, it looks fantastic!
Oh Carol, big congratulations on your major Happy Dance! Your Legends of the Dragons is stunning. Congrats! :o)
Congratulations on your happy dance!!! It's really beautiful. I've watched the progress and it sure feels great to watch it finish. :)
WooHoo! I have enjoyed watching you work on this one. Congrats on the HD, it looks beautiful! Does that mean Dawn is up next?
It's beautiful Carol! I love the fabric you did it on it suites the piece so well.
Wow! Well done Carol. The dragons look great and you really do have a good eye for the right fabric to use.
Congratulations!!!! It looks amazing! I worked on Legends a little last night, I have the border almost complete, I'm leaving the word Wisdom for last but I think this will be finished by the end of the month at the very least!
Thanks for Stitching A Long with this piece!
Congrats on your finish! It looks terrific on the fabric that you chose for it.
Congratulations Carol. I have loved watching this piece grow and it came out awesome.
Yay! Congratulations! It came out beautiful. :)
well done on your happy dance - must be a good feeling to have it all finished :)
Congratulations Carol! It's beautiful. Have you decided how you will frame it yet? Or will you finish it otherwise? Ann.
Congratulation! You really deserve a big happy dance for this one! I wasn't able to read all the other comments so forgive if this has already been asked, but what's going to take it's place?
Hi, Carol, congratulations on your finish! It is just gorgeous! I have enjoyed watching your progress on it (and your other projects) through your blog. I wish I were anywhere near as focused as you are! Happy stitching, Margaret C
Absolutely fabulous - I love how the dragons just POP on that fabric and with that border. Congratulations, it is gorgous!!!
Well, it's a sad day in the blogging world ... LOTD is finished and will be seen no more until it's framed ... {{heavy sigh}} ... I'm very sad to be saying 'farewell' ;P Seriously, though, it looks STUNNING!!! I just adore it ... you did an awesome job of it. But on the good side, we get to see more of Angel of Love - yippee!! :))
