    This counted cross stitch project was stitched in 1992...I framed it last night :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    I have a few more to frame. I have to buy the framing materials a little at a time because Michaels puts out 1 coupon per week. :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll: :roll:

    Congrats! Doesn't it just feel good to finally finish a UFO! I always get such a feeling of satisfaction. Do you have a special spot for this or is it going to be a Christmas gift?

    FancyFoot, that is really cool! How big is it? I do lots of counted cross stitch, too, and I know how expensive framing can be!!!

    Thanks Tiffany
    This is for me. It will fit perfectly in my computer room that has a tropical bird motif.

    Very nice. I have a cross stitch that I started in 2000 that I need to finish. Maybe I can pick it up next summer

    Don't feel bad. I cross-stitched the East Coast lighthouses for my husband several years ago and still haven't framed them. I really should get them done.
