This was a Christmas gift for my Dad, one project partially responsible for the blog silence of December. I finished it with time to spare, but was not able to frame it before the holiday. I’ve ordered a handsome custom frame, which should arrive this week. It was a quick stitch and I enjoyed it, despite some difficulties with counting/spacing. (There is a lot of empty space on this design!) Also, the “blackwork” shamrocks down the right side were fun; I’ve never used that technique before.
