Thankful Finish!

I put the finishing touches on "Let Us Be Truly Thankful" by Heartstring Samplery!!
 

Then I looked through some frames and found this one:

I used a piece of 36ct Barn Owl from my pile (I don't think that fabric is available anymore), and chose GASTs in Toffee, Summer Meadow, Picnic Basket, Burnt Orange and Avocado as substitutes for the DMC threads.

I enjoyed every stitch in this piece! 

Happy Stitching!
Catherine

*Just wanted to let you know that the trophy in the last post was the team trophy.  Each player will get a chance to "host" the trophy in his home for a period of time. Thanks to all for your congratulations to my son and his team.

Love this finish Catherine and it looks super in the frame you chose! Wish they would have ponied up the dough for each team member to have their own trophy. I know that they are just tickled pink ( or maybe blue in this case! LOL) to get to looks at that huge thing!
