Finished it!

I'm very pleased to share a finish with all of you! 

Shades of Autumn

18 ct canvas

As per usual, I under-estimated how much time it would take me to finish this off today.  Each of the four remaining squares took about 45 mins-1 hour.... crazyness, I know!  lol  Anyways, I'm pleased to say that after about 5 or 6 hours (maybe more) of stitching today (and yes, that's a lot of stitching for me in one day!) It's done! 

I'm not sure if I'm going to get this framed or if I'll make it into a little pillow.  I think I'm leaning towards having it framed. 

Thanks for stopping by my blog and thanks for your lovely comments!    :)

Beautiful finish, Karen! I really love the colours in this one, so rich. I also like the contrasts between light and dark. Great job!

Wow! Shades of Autumn is absolutely gorgeous! I think I'd need the patience of a Saint if I attempted to stitch something as lovely-looking as that. x
