Hillside School of Handworke

It's nice to have this piece finished!  I had good intentions to finish it in 2012, but just plain ran out of stitching time.  I'm keeping the year "2012" as stitched; the majority of it was stitched in 2012 anyway!

Sounds like it is going to be a wild weekend for weather.  To my stitching friends on the East Coast, stay warm and stay safe.  We are expecting our own storm here in Minnesota on Sunday into Monday.  Hopefully we will only receive about six inches of snow, but it will still make for a messy commute to work on Monday.

Thanks all for your kind comments on Mrs. Szigethy's embroidery.  Her daughter promises to send us more pictures next week!

My Focus This Week

This work in progress is very close to being finished, so I've decided to give it my full attention this week.

It's a bit wrinkled, but you get the idea.  All that's left is the inside border, the personalization in the middle section (above the roof of the house), and the brickwork (backstitching - ugh!)

Many of you are going to notice the date - 2012.  I had good intentions to finish this piece last year.  Will the stitching police come get me if I decide to leave the date and don't change it to 2013?

Enjoy your day!
