Victoria Sampler finish

Hot off the hoops, my latest finish. I am very VERY happy with the way I've been cleaning out the UFO Bin From Hell. Today I just grabbed a handful without even looking and picked up the first one from the stack. Took only a few hours to finish up and I love the way it turned out. 


Here are the fruits of my labors:



Design: March Birthday Needleroll Kit


Designer: The Victoria Sampler


Fabric: 28 count Cashel linen in Confederate Grey


Fibers Used: DMC in White, 742, 743, 3808, 3815, 3817, 3847. DMC #8 Perle cotton in white. Kreinik Very Fine (#4) Braid in #102 Vatican Gold and #684 Metallic Turquoise. Mill Hill frosted glass beads in #62039






I tweaked the design a bit and I very happy with the outcome. 


Well, I best be off. Need to clean up the stitching area and get out the next UFO. Hope everyone has a great week and the happiest of Thanksgivings! :)
