So...I am finding that I am really bad at taking process photos. Here's what my semi finished piece looked like on Friday.....before I did the background quilting and cut it back.

Here you cn see it after I've quilted it which added the shading lines....and you can see that I have added more detail with threadwork around the window cornices.
And here's the finished piece....only I discovered that I somehow made it an inch too short! That's what comes of measuring it alone while feeling nauseous! I measured it twice...and goofed. At least the quilting pattern I used in the sky is pretty much straight lines...so I can add a piece in and fix it so that the sky portion is just an inch taller. DUH! To quote Burns, "The best-laid schemes o' mice an' men Gang aft agley,"
Come back tomorrow, and I'll be having a give away!
