I made this I did it! I finally finished this embroidery that I've been working on for, oh, six fucking years!→[More:]

Sorry that the picture is sideways. I still have to add the tassles and some cording, but aside from that IT IS DONE! *proud*

YESSSSSSSS!

As a knitter, I feel your pain 100%. Maybe someday I will finally finish a damn doily.

That's really gorgeous!!!!! I love dragonflies, too. Good for you for finishing it, no matter how long it took. I wish I could say the same for me..:^)

Thanks guys! I'm pretty excited... and kind of strangely sad that it's finally done.

Wow .. just beautiful. I am very impressed. I would have lost interest, or lost the bag it was in, or something. It really is gorgeous. It is probably too soon to ask but will you start a new project?

Nice job, js.
