Poinsettias and Pines Finally Finished!

I just finished it up tonight. I was determined! It took exactly three months.

Blue Ribbon Designs "Poinsettias and Pines"
Fabric: 40 ct. Luna by Lakeside Linens
Threads: Belle Soie Silks
Started: 11/24/07 - Finished: 2/24/08

Now I'm thinking of starting Shores of Hawk Run Hollow. I know, totally crazy considering I only have 1 and 1/2 blocks finished on Houses and less than one block finished on the Village. Oh well, maybe I'll finish them all one day - when the kids are in college?? :) Write later!

edited to add better picture.

  5. I like the light green in yours, it's a bit darker that the skein I used. It's beautiful!

    And if you finish something, you get to start something, I say.
