    Default Finally- Deck the Hall Tree completed- 6 weeks later

    Well it's been 6 weeks and it's finally done, alot of work but so worth it. I worked about 4-5 hours a day, plus other embroidery projects. Welcome to the North Pole, Vintage Tins, and a few more. Tries to give close up of the house with snowman & deer, but kinda light.

    Love the little sparkly bits here and there, they add just the right oomph.

    Thanks ladies, I added more sparkle than called for, as I thought the ornaments would look better in sparkle.

    Lots of hours of work, I started hand quilting so gave up all other needle work. But I can certainly appreciate other needle work. Thanks for sharing with us. It gives some of us the extra push we need to try something new or just to get some of us going...

    Oh I wish I could hand quilt, just the embroidery work kills my hands as the arthritis is so bad, but I keep them moving any way. The night's kill me, can't sleep a lot so I just do more embroidery work.

    Your stuff is always so beautiful. It really makes me want to grab my crayons and start another project I don't have time for.
