A Stitcher's Finish

Happy Sunday all.  I got an email and a picture last week from my friend Sharon.
I'm sure many of you have visited her blog, but I wanted to post her finish here too.
Here's what she wrote me.....
Hi Nan!  I finally did it!  When this pattern arrived in my greedy little hands, I picked out the linen and threads... and stitched on it every minute I could find!  And, I finally finished it yesterday. :-) This has to be my favorite Autumn design to date.
Sharon used the charted DMC threads, but substituted 32 ct. Foglifter's Blend by R&R because that's what was in her stash.  The wool in the picture is what she used for the backing and it's stuffed firm with wool snippets and finished up at 5-1/2" x 7-1/2"

Well, my dear Sharon, it is really awesome.  I'm so glad you like the design and that it was a fun stitch.  Thank you so very much for sharing it.   It's the first I've seen done.  You sure got right to it and now have plenty of time to enjoy it.  Super!
Many Smiles, 
~Nan
