I finished it up last night.
It was stitched on 32 count lambswool using Sampler Threads Sable, Grape Leaf, Antique Rose, Grecian Gold, and Clover (instead of Parchment).
I stitched the little gold bits of pollen as French knots. It is hard to tell in the photo, but I think it gives it a dimensional aspect.
I will have to search for a frame. I will try the attic first of course. It is a small piece so it might be easier to find something suitable.
Now I will go back to The Red Thread. The next (9th) square is County Fair.
I have four more squares to go to finish it, but I am losing patience working on it one month at a time. I may just work all the way through it to complete it.
