I finished the stitching of "A Bouquet for Cheryl". Don't know how I'm going to finish it yet. But look for a picture at RCTNP shortly

Congratulations. Very beautiful.
I'm sure you decide on something appropriate for the finish.

It's lovely Cheryl, well done !
Thank you!
Cheryl
Thank you Sheena...
Found several finished but not "finished" pieces - all on plastic canvas that I'm going to put front and center to finish.
For now, that piece will get washed and I'll start looking through my fabric stash for pillow fabric. I might try doing a four sided or nuns stitch to finish the edges off nicely and mount it on a pillow.

If you decide to mount it on a pillow, long armed cross stitch always looks good to attach it. You could always follow through on the green.

It's the yahoo group where we can put pics of our stuff - this is the link -

Thanks. I've joined the photo group. Kathy
Woohoo - good for you. I just got home, and am going to look at threads for a piece which we're going to do at guild on Monday... Meaning I may have to go and buy some more thread...honestly. It never ends. I have plenty of watercolours, and metallics - but it needs a family of 4 shades of floss to go with... And I just don't want to raid anything.
I might finish something one day. Might.

Cheryl - it looks really lovely. You could just do it as an insert into a pillow - talk to me separately, I've been doing some for others...would be happy to finish it for you - then you just have to slip an insert into it. Maybe Donna will post a picture of the topiary we did, and I finished... Which we're supposed to share ;^)

Lovely Cheryl! It should make a nice pillow!
I finally got a chance to go see it, and it's gorgeous! Congrats on a lovely finish. And I agree with the pillow idea - it would be stunning.
.Beautiful!!!
Of course, it would be better in purple. . . (rdh!)
