Beautiful work as usual. Gratz on the Happy Dance!
It's just gorgeous!
I have the series myself and have always wanted to stitch it, but honestly, I'll probably never get around to it. Thank you for letting me "virtual stitch" it with you through your progress pics! :)
Congratulations on the finish. It looks lovely.
Congratulations on the finish. It came out beautiful ;)
Congratulation on your new finish !!! I'm glad I discovered your blog: I like it all and we seem to have similar tastes!!!
Stunning! I'm so happy for you!
That's beautiful. Really does make me want to sit and play with them--- which is something because I hate sand. lol
LOL - me too.
What a difference the backstitching makes! It was beautiful before....now it's wonderful.
You made a super job of it!
BTW, I wrote a big comment to your last post, and REALLY felt for you....but when I went back to read some of the other supporting comments just now, mine isn't there :( I must not have posted it right.
Just wanted you to know that I was here and giving virtual hugs...
