UFO...25 years later
 
1 Attachment(s)
Sometimes we know that we have to finish an UFO, but just can' t bring ourself to do it.....say for 25 years. So you dig it out and work little by little, put it back for a couple more years, then dig it out again. And what happens is the most amazing thing you have ever worked on. Something totally beautiful happens. This is mine....a 25 year process. Let's hope the picture posts.

Charming bunnies. I remember that "style" of hiding sweet little critters in the bushes and leaves. Worth the wait!. What a lovely finish right down to the frame.

Linda, that's gorgeous!!! So glad you finished that beauty!

lindaschipper 11-09-2021 05:22 AM

juliasb....this work of mine isn't applique but cross stitch. I've found that many quilters also cross stitch and that is why I posted it on this site.

No wonder it took you 25 years to complete. I can only imagine the hours that went into this masterpiece. It is gorgeous.
