Finito



Finally, I have finished Ziya's cross stitch.
Some of you may remember it from these previous posts (If not, you can take a peek over at flickr 1, 2,3 & 4). I was starting to worry that I'd still be dilly dallying around with this come his first birthday. I worried so much that I peeled myself up in the wee hours of the morning to finish it off a couple of nights ago. It's such a great feeling to complete a piece like this, especially seeing that it's been waiting ever so patiently........... for way too long.
Now for the framing!

Thank you! I'm very pleased...although I'm sure Ziya will think it's very daggy. (Yes, Fran and Ladle you guys are funny). xox

yeah, there will come a time when he thinks it's very daggy and it will be pulled off the wall, but there will also come a time when he'll appreciate it again....
hello fran!
