legalmooseFinished up the grad school seal over the weekend.
Wasn't difficult, I just had to finish the fill-in of the gold color around the outer circle, then do the backstitching on the book. As I was putting it away for now, I took some pictures of the other things I've completed over the years and filed them away in a cross stitch album on Flickr. Most are in desperate need ironing, but I don't think we brought the apartment sized ironing board with us, and I know I haven't bought one, so it ain't happening yet. I immediately delved into another long-delayed project, a copy of a Tiffany window, the View of Oyster Bay. I have a good chunk of the black outlining done, and assorted bits of color where I got tired of all black at various times of working on it. I think this one dates back to college, so early 1990s. And I know I'll start and finish other projects before that one is done, but I'm determined to get 'er done at some point.
