Folks, I finished the last of the bellpull and it is winging its way to Virginia for the 50th Annual Woodlawn Needlework Exhibition (so excited!!!!!!!). It’ll be on display at the Woodlawn estate (originally part of Mount Vernon! For non-Americans, that involves George Washington, our first president) throughout all of March. At least, as long as nothing goes wrong in the next week. So here are the last two flowers! Some advice from recent experience: if there is a spider web surrounded by more stitching, do the spider web first. It’s a lot easier without any stitches nearby to catch the needle. Next week: photos of the whole thing!

Good for you on the finish, Hannah! Looking forward to the photos of the whole project next week!
Hurray!
The spider’s web is such a great stitch it’s worth taking the time with it.
I hadn’t realized how amazing it looks until this project.
Loving the colours in this piece. Looking forward to seeing the whole thing.

I don’t know about that – the competition is really stiff π They get like six hundred entries! But it will be nice to be able to show it off to people after putting so much work into it.
