Mediterranean Squares





I am excited to say that I have completed my first finish of 2010. I was able to pilot stitch Mediterranean Squares designed by Terry Dryden. I wasn't sure about the piece at first because it was not colors that I cared for. I decided to do it anyway and to force myself to work outside of my comfort zone. Boy am I glad that I did this. This piece was hard to put down and now I don't mind the colors at all. There are also a few threads used in this piece that I hadn't used before and just fell in love with them.



I didn't work on it for about six weeks while I was working with my daughters class and teaching them to needlepoint, but the minute I was done with the class, I was back working on it.


Thank you Terry for such a fun piece that I can put in my collection.
