The Bookshelf - Little House Needleworks

I mentioned in an earlier post that I had finished The Bookshelf by Little House Needleworks but wasn't able to take photos as the battery on my camera had just gone down. I'm so happy to have this finished at last, as I had started it way back in 2006. I was just past half way done with the stitching before we got so busy with the finish of our self build, and then having to pack for our move early 2007. I recently took it out one evening thinking I would just put a few stitches in while deciding what next to do on my long to do list, but found I was enjoying working on it so much that I couldn't bring myself to put it away again until it was finished! I've stitched it as charted on 28ct Light Mocha Cashel with DMC threads.




Thanks for popping by. :o)
