    I have a few more WIP pictures for you. It has been so cold here and as it's our first winter in this area, I have nowhere to work, but today I scrubbed the back verandah and am setting up some studio space later today. It's fine and sunny at last.

    It's not in progress any more!

    I finished it in time for our local Agriculural show, entered and won a blue ribbon.

    Quite chuffed with that!

    Wow...that's awesome. Congratulations on the win

    Is that freehand machine embroidered? Or have you done it by hand? I can't quite tell

    I can see why it took a while. Thankfully, you stuck with it and that is so pretty. Love the vibrancy of the colors.
