a long awaited finish!

My first finish of the year!
Carousel Zebra by Angela Pullen (Just Cross-Stitch) 8-1/4"x 9-1/4" on 14 ct aida 

It has been a long time coming.  I started this project sometime in the late 90's.  It became a UFO when I ran out of the gold blending filament needed to complete it.  

I also have the companion pieces Carousel Tiger (in progress) and Carousel Lion.  I completed the Carousel Lion in 1998 - it may be seen on my Finishes page

It has been such a busy year, that I haven't had much time for stitching.  So, I am extra happy to have a finish, especially one that has been on my WIP list for so many years.
