That Didn't Take Long!
Beach Cottage is finished! I'm trying to figure out why I put it away when I was so close to a finish, but most Victoria Sampler designs are what I like to call fiddly. Below is a snippet from the pamphlet that I made a working copy from. As I work my way through the design, I mark out the verbiage, as well as marking my progress on the chart. At some point, I get a little burned out on the backstitching here and there, color changes, etc. and I move on to a simpler design. But I always come back.

I love this stitch so much and would love to make it for dear friends that own a pretty beach home. They have generously let us stay so many times and I always like to put something hand stitched in this thank you basket of goodies. You did a super job on the specialty stitches.
Come by when you have a chance and sign up for our big give away. RJ@stitchingfriendsforever
This is gorgeous! I love all the details!
It's lovely!
This is beautiful. I love all of the detail on the design and especially the colour changing word border. The chart does look a pain to follow. x
Oh Von! This is so very pretty! I love the colors so very much.
Von, congratulations on getting Beach Cottage finished! It is such a pretty piece. I really like the cottage color. What thread did you use for the words?
Congrats on your beautiful finish!
Love their cottages.
