Monopoly Finished!

I'm back in the world of blogs. I have not felt much like dealing with anything for the last couple months...since by dearest friend, Barb passed away.  I am thankful she is no longer in pain, but I miss her every day.

I finished Monopoly quite awhile ago, but failed to post a pic (oh the shame)... finished the last stitch on April 27th.

I was sorting through my magazines and found this finish stuffed in one of them...good grief!  I'm not sure if I posted it before..so I figured I would share because it's so darn cute! (Excuse the shadow..I was being lazy)

Here is a progress pic on 272 words. I have been stitching like crazy on this one. I have already finished two more pages since this pic was taken last week. I will work on getting a pic that can be enlarged... It's the declaration of independence for those who are not familiar with the design.

Last, but not least.... I won a contest that inkkfreakk sponsored on her blog a very long time ago. I won 5 skeins of her hand dyed thread. This is some gorgeous fiber!  The colors are rich and full, the thread is soft..I can't tell any difference between it and WDW or GAST...seriously.  If you are able to try some, I highly recommend it!

Finally, I leave you with the view from our house. We are about two minutes from the busiest part of town, btw :)

Have a wonderful weekend, everyone! Thank you for stopping by :)
