Granted, it wasn't that large and it shouldn't have taken 10 years (or thereabouts) but it is finished. It could have been finished years ago if I had only kept picking it up but I didn't. I didn't even LIKE working on it at several points.
I have loved every minute I have worked on it since picking it up for the WIPocalypse and the 2012 HAEDless stitching challenge. It is done. Scary part is that I'm tempted to now start another row instead of picking up another old piece to finish off.
Here are some closeups:
This is block 4. The directions recommended putting some pottery shard or something like that in the medallion. In a past medallion on MW's Bluebell mini, I put in a small crystal. I couldn't conveniently find one I liked for this so I just stitched in the attribution information.
Some pictures of the border.
It's just beautiful - congratulations!
