I pulled this out of the bottom of the WIP basket (which is really like 3 baskets...but we won't go there!). I started it back when it was still a freebie. Now it's part of that fairly new release by LHN with all of the freebies in one chart. I love it, and I'm anxious to get it done, however the repetitive squares are getting a bit tiresome...maybe that's why it got put away :) I have changed one part of this design. The original calls for a tiny white heart in one of the red squares at the bottom right. I didn't like there being only one...so I've left it out completely.
Also I had a few things framed, so here's the final products. The Just Nan and Waxing Moon pieces have been stitched since before Nicholas was born...so they're circa 2005ish. Nice to have them done. The crab is hanging on Nicholas' door...it's appropriate for him this week; but seriously, it's there mostly because he liked it and wanted it in his room.

Congratulations on some wonderful framed pieces. You'll have to try to stitch a couple of squares a night so you don't get bored again. :)
Super framed pieces!!! The game board is just lovely!!
So pretty. I need a crab sign for someone at my house, too!
Lovely finishes, congratulations!
Lovely framed pieces.
The gamboard is looking nice too.
I like your gameboard WIP, and your framed pieces are really lovely.
All these pieces are beautifully framed. Love the gameboard piece, but I could see how all those squares could get quite boring to stitch.
I only have one basket of WIPs, but the basket is getting replaced by a bigger one every year. It's really an enourmous basket now and full to the brim, lol! I am glad that we all have one of these.
Your finishes all turned out so sweet! You did such a good job on them all! Love your latest wip too! :)
I can see how those squares would get tiring after a while, but oh how lovely it looks!
Yay! You've framed your finishes. That's always been my favorite part of completing a project. I love the beaded rose in the wide white frame. So pretty!
Your framed finishes are lovely and I love the gameboard! I've never stitched one of these but keep meaning to have a go.
Your framed pieces look great! The crab one made me laugh. Ive stitched that LHN gameboard before.
How you feeling after getting your wisdom teeth removed? Sounds painful!
love the framed pieces the frames are perfect!
The gameboard is so pretty, you'll get through all those squares before you know it - and what lovely framed pieces!
