I finished this on Sunday, it was quite quick stitch. Although I did think I was going to run out of thread, and was thinking if I ordered more, it would be a different colour, but I ended up with 1.5 inch left. Phew!!I have plans of how I want to finish this, and it includes a trip to the wood yard, and my handiwork with a chisel, but if I'm honest I'll probably never get around to the making up - we'll see. I have dropped hints to dh, but he's too busy in the summer with his allotment.
Now, if there's anyone who would like this pattern, I'd love to trade it for LHN The Sampler Lady, Stitcher's Prayer, School of Needlework, Home of a Needleworker, City Stitcher Country Stitcher, or Thread Gathering.

wow you were sailing close to the wind there Chris. She was worth it though as she is very sweet.
I'm glad you had enough floss! That was a close call! Your stitching looks great. Congrats. on your finish!
Very pretty.
Aiks! 1.5" Very very close.
That is really nice Chris.
So, are you going to make a nice matching tassel with your 1 1/2" of thread????
Wow what a gorgeous finish Chris! Only 1.5" of thread left! I bet you were panicking!
Lovely picture.... No wonder you were worried about running out of thread, that's not much left to work with!!

Great job Chris - it is beautiful!
If you haven't already organized an exchange, I have LHN Sampler Lady. ;) I can't believe how fast you stitched this!
Great finish! i just got this one in the mail...and now I'm wondering which colour you almost ran out of? I'll want to be careful when I stitch mine.
Nothing like cutting it fine! LOL
