June, 2024

This was a weekly stitch-along from 2022. The first photo I have of the project was from February of that year so I was already behind. I worked at it off and on over the next few years but when Asher’s graduation was approaching I felt it was time to finish it and present it to him as a gift.

I was almost finished the stitching by the time I decided to give it to Asher. There were some “issues” with the alignment that I could live with but wanted to correct since it was a gift. One re-working led to another and I think I did at least a quarter of it over again. To be honest, it was the border that really caught my eye on this one, although I liked the touches of colour spread throughout.

I was pleased with the result and, much to my amazement, I’m downloading the patterns for this year’s stitch-along. Needless to say, I haven’t started it yet.
