A little finish for a friends birthday - I thought it looked a bit like her! Been having problems with a sore arm, but fed up with not stitching so did my best to ignore the pain and had lots of breaks. Hopefully she will like it

That is so cute! Your friend is going to love it. Hope your arm is feels better soon. Sounds like you have figured out a way to stitch some. Taking breaks is a good idea.
