Oh you will love it. The scenery is amazing. Went there in the 80's (visited Vermont). Just stunning.

Finally finished it. Had to stop for a few days. Hurt my arm and shoulder. Still hurts. And all I was doing was getting dressed.Pulled a muscle and agrivated my tendonitis and arthritis. Sleeping is a nightmare.
But, at least it is done.

Sorry to hear you're in pain!
The house is lovely!! Lots of shingles to backstitch, I'm sure. The details in the doors and arches really stand out, as do all the flowers. Congratulations!

Really fantastic and so life like. Wouldn't it be wonderful to live in a house like that - bags I turret room as my stitching place.
You really have done a wonderful job.
Hope the pain improves heaps soon and you can get back to stitching without the hassle of the sore shoulder.

Oh my God you've done it so FAST!
I really really love this house, especially the backstitched details above the doorsteps. It will make a fantastic decoration for your home!

Beautiful work!! Great finish, well done, even with your shoulder troubles!
I love the ivy (is it?) climbing up the wall
And I
did want the turret room, but think Squirrel has already moved in there!
