The Rain Fell Finished!

I finally got it finished up today! I was in a little slump trying to get back into my stitching routine. I have also been missing my big Ott-Lite. I left it in Florida because we just didn't have any more room to take it with us. I will get it in a week or so when I go back down. I was just all out of sorts. I had gotten used to the one place I always stitched and the one light I always used. It was just weird! Anyway, I got out a different light and it is ok. It's not my favorite, but it will do until I get my other one back. I'll never leave it again! :) LOL! Anyway, here are a couple of pics of "The Rain Fell."

  5. Excellent choice of fabric, Nicole. Your finish is lovely. You'll get used to the new place very quickly and get yourself another favorite stitching spot. Its good to have you back again, and that closet looks very well organized.

  8. It's really cute! The chart is temporarily sold out at my LNS. We get about 200 days of rain a year. But it makes for lovely green fields and the evergreens thrive here.

  14. Another great finish! What slump? You've stitched this one in no time.

    Hope you get your Ott-Lite back soon and you can find an enjoyable spot to work in.

    Embroidery Guild will be another fun one for you to do. Are you getting their two new patterns? Maybe I already know the answer to that one!
