finished the AA

And cannot wait until I have some halfway decent pictures to show, I am so happy I got through it after all problems I came upon sttching it :-) ! I really hope to do some better pics later, in real daylight etc.
The design is by Nicola Mascall ( the  problems were NOT due to her, honest, it was entirely me. Breaking an arm is definitely not a good plan if you want to do stitching, and getting mojo going again afer operation , rehab , took its own sweet time )

Anyway, here goes :

                                                    This is it, glory be !!!




And this is where it is going to live for the time being :

      Dank je wel Gee, ik ben er heel blij mee. Een van de dingen waardoor ik het volhield was gewoon dat ik het een erg mooi ontwerp vond en dat ik toch ergens uit moest komen als ik maar door ging met borduren :-)

    Hi Elly! I remember that blog where you said you had broken your arm and how INCONVENIENT ( as well as painful) it was because you weren't able to work on this carpet. So it is Very Gratifying to see how your determination and persistence has paid off -BIG TIME! :D Your Rug is a KNOCK OUT! :D
