small happy dance

The people in this group will appreciate my sigh of relief:

I'm working on a huge piece, and did the "inner" vining border down the right about 15 inches, and down the left about 15 inches, with the central part still unstitched. And then stitched the "outer" border around that....and THEY MATCHED! Ta-DUM! Big sigh....

Huge sigh appreciated. But, inquiring minds want to know....which piece - of your so many large ones?

The same one: "Corragio". It's taking forever! But fun. (And it would help if I didn't let myself keep being distracted by smaller ones, too.) I'm hoping to have it done in time for the state fair in August. If not, there's always another one next year!

of the top half is underway. Halfway through the first line of the alphabet, all the flowers done and most of the leaves outlined, the reverse-stitched unicorns almost done and I'm ready to start the beribboned box with the quote inside. The center knotwork/column-thingies are done. And the happy dance was over the left and right sides of the vine borders matching up, with the mermaid part still unstitched. What you can't see (because of the frame) is a black border around the whole thing... Maybe I'll have DD bring her digital camera over this weekend to take a picture of it in progress for RCTNP.

How great Sue; that is always such a relief when things MATCH!! You done good,as they say!!!

I can't say that about the little oval I stitched, white on white yesterday, and was off by 1 stitch. Frogged the damn thing.

Yowser. That's quite a piece. I can imagine the relief in having matched the sides!

It'll be a fling AND a pint of single malt when it's done!
