WEEK TWO:
I started with front of the house and sailboat mast in center, then worked my way down to bottom and over to the left corner.
WEEK 4:
The sky wasn't as difficult to stitch as it might look, just tedious. Extremely tedious! In fact, the decorated tree was more of a pain than that large expanse of sky.
WEEK 6:
I had to swtich over to work on some of the house and bottom right fence post for a while, before returning to finish the sky.
WEEK 8:
House, large dove and fence take shape.
WEEK 10:
The final week was spent backstitching birds, fence and large sailboat rigging, then matting and framing.
I think they liked it...

It clearly took a lot of work. I think I'd go nuts on the boring sky part.
Wow! This is gorgeous, Trixie! I'm sure your friends were enthralled with it.
Alice: I think I nearly did go nuts with that section. Most of it was done during one of our NCIS marathon weekends, so it also helped to just set it aside for a break now and then, or to switch over and work on something different.
Jana: Thank you. I wish I'd been a bit quicker on the camera button so as to capture the look on K's face when she unwrapped it. *g*
I'm impressed.
Thanks, Kaye!
This is GORGEOUS! Great work!
