Finally Finished on Friday!

This is a cross-stitch of a Tasha Tudor painting.  I've been working on this at least for the past three years.  It's been mostly a slow-day-at-work project, so progress on it has been slow.  I've actually had the Holiday Crafts magazine that contains the pattern since 1997.  I'm really excited to have it done!

    I love that you're keeping "old school" arts alive.

    I finished it a few minutes before midnight so it qualified for the week! I love the little girl and her corgi and chickens.
