The Lady Is Complete!

It's been quite a while, but she's finally done and she's beautiful!  The best viewing distance for her is about three feet.  It feels good getting such a large project done.  I've sent an email to the charity I made it for to see if they still want it.  If they don't, my husband insists on keeping it.  Now to find another patriotic piece to stitch!

Outside of being large, this was a fairly easy stitch.  My main complaint was that the beads were too large for the area they needed to fit, and that they were unevenly sized.  Made do, though.

    When I started reading your blog, you were still stitching the flag on this one. It is an amazing piece, congratulations. It looks like you are settling nicely into your new home.
