March's Ornament - Done!

Here is my ornament for March. I love this design...I have stitched it FOUR times, but never for myself! It is 'Peace & Quiet' by Erica Michaels. I think it may be OOP now. I stepped out of my comfort zone and finished as a flat ornament with cord trim. I'd forgotten how tricky a flat finish is! It's so difficult to get the design perfectly central. 😬
I will be back later in the month with news of two exchanges that I have participated in. Two posts in one month?! Wow, I really am on a roll. 😊

    So pretty. I have to admit to never doing flat finishes because I can not get them just the way I like them. x

    That is gorgeous, Christina! I struggle with flat finishes, myself--know just what you mean :) I think that is why most of my finishes are pillows or round/oval types.

    Happy spring to you and your three sweeties!

    Oh, it's so pretty! You should really stitch it for yourself one day, just for fun :D

    That's a great design, Christina, and I can understand that you wanted to stitch it for yourself as well. And your finishing is perfect.
