It is finished! But i can't finish it into something for this year anymore. I don't even know which kind of finishing. Before i started stitching this design i thought i would like to make it into a pillow but now i would like to frame it. Since i don't have time now to finish it off i have a year to think it over!

We should left today for the mainland but when i called our friend yesterday she said the roads are still quite risky because of the snow the previous days. We haven't that much over here on the island but in some parts of Holland they really have lots of snow. The roads are much better now so we are going tomorrow morning.

May you all have a wonderful CHRISTMAS with family and friends!

Wij zijn een manadag naar Limburg gereden, het was redelijk te doen, hier en daar nog wat gladde stukken, verder niet. Succes en wees voorzichtig...
