Drum roll please....I finished her!! :D :D

I would have finished sooner but other stuff came up but I finally sat down the other day and got the last bit of back stitching done and added the last of the beads.

After finishing her my mom suggested that we give it to my nan after all since she is always asking if I have finished it yet and always asking if she can open the green present lol. I know I do a lot of stitchings for my nan, but she was the one who got me into crafting and always encouraged me to try new things in the crafting world...and since I am FINALLY finishing pieces that I know that she will love and cherish forever, I don't mind making pretty things for her. I also like seeing her face when I can give her something that she doesn't do herself and she appreciates it so much :) :wub: :wub: :wub: I just love her so much
