Here she is! I was so excited when I came home from work tonight and my Kreinik was waiting for me! It is still on back order with the original ONS, but I found that my ebay buddy, Janet, had it in stock and she expedited it right to me! I will give her a little plug here, as she totally deserves to be known by you:
Home Sweet Home Needlecrafts - thank you so much Janet!!
So, without further ado, let me introduce you to....

This is so beautiful. Because of your posts, I had to find that issue. It's now in my queue to work on. I hope you don't mind if I copy yours. The fabric you used just adds to the charm of this piece.
She's absolutely beautiful! I started stitching her after seeing you start. I'm not quite half-way yet, but I haven't found all of the supplies, either. I hadn't thought to check Ebay; I'll have to check in to that.
That turned out so beautifully Carol. Congrats and happy dance to you
She looks awesome !
Oh my, I'll bet she is knock out gorgeous in person. You did good, girl.
I just love her. Well done. I often buy from her also

What a beauty, Carol! And I think you stitched that so quickly, despite a few setbacks :o)
Great finish. I lurked and watched you doing this one right from the start. I was with you waiting for the Kreinik, I hate having to wait for stuff.
She looks wonderful! I still haven't started mine since I haven't desided what kind of fabric I'll use. I may try dying the fabric myself. :)

Add my voice to the chorus of "she's beautiful!" in here....I'm thinking of stitching her on more of the Lakeside Linen Vintage Limited that I'm currently using. Of course, that means I have to START stitching her... hehehe
