I can't believe that I have finally finished this crewel embroidery. I took the class with Margaret Light last October and just put it aside until about June this year. I worked on it a bit in July and then put it down again. In August I finally decided that I had to finish it as I have booked in for Part 2 and I didn't want this to be another expensive unfinished project! I worked on it every day and it it took so much longer than I thought it would. You look at a flower and think "I'll get this one done tonight and it takes 3-4 days. Also the light during the day was by far easier to work in than the evening where all the colours look different and even with the magnifying glass the stitches are harder to see. Anyway I am so proud of myself to have finally finished!! Part 2 starts at the end of October and if I can I will try and finish it straight away as I want to have the 2 pieces framed as two panels.
