"My Beloved's" - Finished!

Late last night, I put the final stitches into "My Beloved's" by Country Cottage Needleworks.  I was able to complete this project in just two weeks, which you will know if you are a regular reader, is quite an accomplishment for me. 

(I apologize for the hoop marks in the pictures; I generally don't press my finished pieces until I am ready to frame or otherwise finish them.)

I think if I were to stitch this design again, I would choose a color other than the green (Crescent Colors' Dandelion Stem) for the words; if it were a gift, I'd try to learn what color would match the recipient's decor. 

This was a great project to stitch, and I thoroughly enjoyed it.
