OK - REALLY my last finish!
OK... OK. I promise this is the last one! I finished this up while I've been on my little Christmas staycation. I finished up the 1x1 on the fruit (which I thought would never end), and almost everything through the end of the Celtic Knots yesterday. Today I finished the BS on the Celtic Knots, and then did all of the drawn thread-work and beading today. I thought I would do this as just a one off, but I enjoyed working this piece so much that I think I will work the other three seasons. This makes me feel a little *less* guilty about starting the new sampler Tom got me for Christmas (which I still need to get fibers and fabric for). In the meanwhile I will keep trekking through Long Dog's Plight of Fancy (I'm in the bottom third!), and see if I can't get over my beading ADD and finish up a few of the Mirabilia pieces that I am sooo close to finishing in the New Year. Considering I lost my stitching Mojo for about half of this year, its not a bad accomplishment to have finished WIPs, about 10 ornaments, and continued work on Plight.

Last Stitching Finishes of 2011
So, I worked all of Teresa Wentzler's Byzantine Ornaments, plus a few other freebies she has released. My strength is definitely in the stitching, and not so much in the finishing! Well, there is always next year!
