And a great big happy dance it is too! Today I put the final stitches into Pacific Pohutukawa … and seeing as the Pohutukawa is the New Zealand Christmas tree, it’s finished at an appropriately festive time of year 😀 I have to say, though, my right thumb is quite tender after dragging the thread through those corner Pohutukawa flowers … and if I don’t see another skein of DMC Rayon or Metallic thread over the next 12 months, it’ll be too soon!! LOL. Actually the scan doesn’t do the colours justice – they’re extremely vibrant! 😀

It also means my stretcher bars are now freed up ready to start my Laura J Perin piece woohoo 🙂 And seeing as Blogger photo uploading is playing nicely today, here are the next two ornies I put the finishing touches into yesterday.
