Yes, I entered a Round Robin, Half the time no one seemed to know where the stitching was, and when I got it back, some of the stitching looked like their kids did it. Very dissapointing.
But, I love that tree. So whistful.
Mine isn't really a Christmas design, more of a winter design. I am doing it instead of my Noah's Ark right now because it looks like it will stitch up quick and I am a little bit intimidated by my Noah's Ark at the moment. Scroll to the bottom to see the one I am doing

You could've fooled me! I hope you only mean it takes you longer than you would like, because in terms of quality and beauty of finish, yours takes the cake!
