Show & Tell
This is The Peacock’s Garden from Fox and Rabbit Designs. It is a UFO.
I have another finish -- the GCC Shimmering Dreams that was sponsored by the Metropolitan Region. Of course, I didn't follow all of the designer's directions to make it more pleasing for me. I plan to have this framed.
American Flag Pin, designed by Carol Light of Light House Designs. Featured as the July 2017 project on the EGA Stitch Along group on Facebook. I finally added the pinback.
Stars Sampler. I stitched star designs from various books in my collection. The quote is from the poem “The Old Astronomer” by Sarah Williams
I just got this one back from the framer - Carnival by Toni Gerdes, a Chapter workshop. My colorway using Watercolors Forest Fire as the primary overdye. Framing by Framed Image.

I don't know the designer. Painted canvas was purchased at Threads Too in Fair Haven. I changed the colors of two trees - the two purple ones were red, and I thought there was too much red. Stitches and fibers were my choice. Finishing by Colleen Korth in Miami. This was a lot of fun to stitch.
I can't remember the designer. Canvas purchased at Threads Too. My choice of threads and stitches. It will be made into a huge egg standup.

I have completed the stitching on the GCC Perfectly Counted Crosses which is a UFO. Since I will not be submitting this GCC for evaluation I did not follow the designer's requirements. And if you're wondering about the base fabric -- it's called parchment from Fabric Flair and is a 28 count even weave.

stash sale from ANG's Royal Palm Chapter in Miami. There is also a pink one - both
are currently with the finisher.

changed the stitches on the two borders and added a "fillet" (like framers add).
