I was a little nervous for this part, I hadn't done the Edelweiss stitch for many years and I only did it once in a class. I am thankful I had the best hardanger teacher ever! As I was doing it, I could hear Marie walking me through it. If Marie was still here today, I probably would have been paying her a visit! Anyway, I did enjoy doing it and am pleased with the outcome. There is only 1 installment left on this piece. I'm thinking it will be the edging.
I joined Carol's (iStitch) stitch-a-long and completed the 1st installment. I am using 40 ct. ivory linen with Thread by Nina, "Romance". I love it so far.
I did have another finish this week. It is called "Americana" by Workbasket. Thank you Edgar!
I did the companion piece to this, "Landscape" about 4 years ago.
It was about time I finished the 2nd one. I will be ordering frames for these eventually.
That's it for today. Thanks for stopping by.
Happy Stitching!

A great finish - I think the charts are by Workbasket - andI love the SAL's!!
Great progress on your SALs. A lovely finish.
I love both of your landscapes they are gorgeous!
Your Hardanger is stunning!
BEAUTIFUL!!! Absolutely lovely on all fronts.
I have to ask-- will you be doing the cutting on your hardanger? I just couldn't bear to do it -- it makes me so nervous.
Congrats on all the accomplishments.... and thanks so much for sharing your wonderful stitching.
I love the 2 companion pieces! They'll look fantastic framed and hanging up next to each other. I'll have to look for the 2 charts.
Beautiful finish. Love both companion pieces. Just lovely.
Great SAL pieces as well
I love all projects! Especially the HAL, it's really wonderful! But I like the others too :)
Beautiful stitching Jill! I love the hardanger piece:)))
Love your SAL's. I've always wanted to try my hand at hardanger. May give it a try in the very near future.
Your finish is beautiful as well!
