Sweet Victory!


Sunflower House is finished!

The victory is three-fold: (1) a finish; (2) a finish on time; and (3) making enough time for myself to stitch! I think No. 3 is the most important victory here though.

This is a Blackbird Design stitched on the recommended 28 ct. Friendship Blue linen by R&R and using the recommended Sampler Threads.

Congratulations on your finish but more importantly, congratulations on #3, finding time to stitch! My blog is full of whining about not be able to find time to stitch!
Beautiful work! Blackbird Designs is one of my favorites.

Thank you everyone! Making time has been a challenge, but I've been staying up a little later, and DH has been taking over the night-time routine with Max a few days a week to give me more "me" time, so I'm squeezing it in where I can. I also took a few days off and that helped a lot too!
