A HUGE Christmas finish!

Dear Stitching Friends, please excuse my very long absence.  I have been very busy trying to finish my massive train project.  As some of you know, this is a project that has been 10 years in the making and I swore it would not go past the 10 year mark!  It was set aside many times due to things of life getting in the way and sometimes out of pure frustration. But, alas, it is finally finished!

May I present...drumroll, please...

Stitched on 28 ct Pewter Jobelyn 
Used called for threads, beads & blending filament
Stitched from June 2003 - December 24, 2013



Please, ignore all the wrinkles!  I was trying to get it finished, in a box and wrapped before my husband got home from work on Christmas Eve.  He came home while I was putting it in the box.  ;-)

Congratulations! It looks wonderful. I couldn't stop looking at mine once it was finished. Bet you're doing the same thing.
