I've finished Buttermilk Tabbies!!!!

It's finished!!! I'm so proud of myself!!! It took 85 hours to complete and was sent around on UFO RR in 2009. I've worked steadily on it since January and added about 45 hours to the work already done by the other stitchers (there was about 10 hours worth of stitching when it left for the RR). I'm really proud of myself! So here it is:

Title: Buttermilk Tabbies
Designer: Julia Lucas
Magazine: Just Cross-Stitch (June 2004)
Fabric: Antique White Lugana (28 counts)
Threads: DMC and 1 blue Anchor
Size: 122H x 122W
Time to complete: 85 hours

Thank you for looking!

Welcome...

... to the SAL designed to help finish those UFOs that have been lurking in a dark corner for months, if not years!

There are no rules or time limits as such. All you have to do is this.

Become a member (email me via my profile and I will send you an invitation).

On your first post give the following information:

The UFO you have chosen, designer etc.

How long it has been a UFO.

Why you think it became one in the first place.

A photo.

Set a target of how much time you will give to your UFO each month. It could be an evening, a day, a weekend, or a week, whatever you choose.

Start stitching and by the end of the month post your progress. Feel free to add more posts if you wish.

Label your posts with a minimum of your name and the design.

Start stitching and turn those UFOs into the finished item.

Good Luck!

Jen
