Quaker Meetinghouse Finish!
I didn't think I'd manage to finish this today, but it's been MISERABLE outside, so it was the perfect night to stay in and stitch. :) Karen and I have been doing this as a SAL. We had to put it away for a wee while after we ran out of the Tartan Plaid Crescent Colours, and only picked it up again yesterday. I couldn't put it down until I'd finished. What can I say, I loved stitching on it that much. :)
A few details: mine was stitched on Kiwi Illusions Tussock Belfast linen with all the suggested Crescent Colour threads. Halloween Fairy was also done completely in Crescent Colours and I have to say this is my favourite cotton floss now. It's absolutely wonderful to stitch with. It states you'll need 2 skeins of the Tartan Plaid for this design... I needed about 2.5, and I think if you're stitching it 2 over 2 on 28/30/32 Count you'll definitely need more than 2 skeins.
Thank you again Karen for the extra skein of Tartan Plaid thread. I can't wait to see yours!!
