That's fantastic - I love the poem and your work certainly does it justice. Well Done.

It's coming along really well since I last saw this one - well done. I love the lettering, has it been very difficult to do?

It is looking wonderful, it always amazes me that good old backstitching and long stitching can make such lovely lettering.

No, the lettering hasn't been that difficult. I had to :ribbit: a couple of times just because I got distracted by my kids while trying to do it.

Not much left to do now! :D I'm hoping to have this one done by the weekend. The Olympics have been good for stitching, but not for my need of sleep.

Beautiful! I had to take a careful look to see what you still had to do but then I spotted it in the top right hand corner :-) -- you're very close now!

Okay, here it is. I finished stitching it on Sunday. I'm hoping to get the mat and frame this weekend since Joanns is having a pretty good sale. I might not get around to framing it for a week or two, but I will post pics when it is done.
