Have You Ever Stitched Until...

Have you ever stitched until you couldn't focus anymore?  I know, dumb question.  I really wanted to finish this silk gauze sampler last night, but I just couldn't make it.  But hopefully, tonight it will be done.   Only about two more hours of filling in the background.  I can't decide if I'm going to do a couple of rows of cream around the edge or not. Don't you just love that checkerboard?  Wonder where that idea came from.

Then I'll have to make that teeny tiny little frame. I really don't look forward to that part, but I've done it for most of the ones I've stitched for Mother's Day.  Oh well, something to think about next week.

I really need to get back to Shores of Hawk Run Hollow. Graph paper is ready and waiting for me to replace that memorial verse in block eight with my personalization.  Maybe this weekend...
