Stitched this as a request from DH. He rarely asks for stitching, so I was pleased to do it (despite tons of back stitch).

:applesauce: :applesauce: I think that is really lovely. It looks like something which has been made from metals (copper I guess) long ago.
Maybe it's the back stitching that gives it so much character?

Thank you, Squirrel! I like it so far. I have to stitch up "love" and order the pictures still, though. Unfortunately, no more stitching until I'm caught up on homework :ratherbe:

Love the celtic piece. I can tell the back stitching was a bear to do but you did a phenomenal job.

While I can only find a WIP photo, I did finish this little kit! Something nice I can hang out when I've run out of spoons.
