Finally finished Autumn by Sara Guermani. I started this in 2021 and had to restart it this year on a different fabric (56 count Cream Kingston Linen with DMC threads) since I miscalculated my counting when I started with the border on the top left. I started in the middle the second time and worked outwards, which worked out great. I actually have too much fabric all the way around now, about 8", but at least I can trim it depending on how it will be framed. Now I'm frogging the first start to reuse the linen on another project. I just wanted to post this before Winter starts tomorrow. I did end up changing quite a bit of colors especially on the houses. I did write down the changes for future inquiries of if I want to stitch it again. It was very fun to come up with other colors that would keep the overall feel of her design.
This was the first time using a count this high and I really enjoyed it. I'm not sure I will be able to turn back.
I have picked up another project I started early this year called Evergreen Sampler by Rosewood Manor from a 2013 Christmas book by Craftways Herschnerrs A. I will post pics later.
