Walk in the Woods is finished!

Yea!!! Walk in the woods is done! For a pretty large piece it actually got done really quick. Isn't it funny how some projects are just a breeze and then others take FOREVER to finish. I started this the beginning of December. It's all DMC threads without a lot of back stitching which made it an easy one to work on.
This is my Lizzie Kate exchange from Aubree of "For the Love of Cross Stitch". Wow she did such a great job on it. And it was such a cute idea changing the February part of it to say Stephanie instead. Also the finishing on it is awesome. That is my least favorite part of making stuff is finishing them, because mine never come out as perfect as I want them to be. Needle books like this are definitely still above my skill and courage level.
Anyways I love the little needle book and am very excited to show it off in my sewing kit! Thank you so much Aubree.

Walk in the Woods is beautiful! Congrats!
Lovely exchange!
And you should just bite the bullet and finish smalls. Eventually you'll get it. Practice makes perfect. Right?
That picture with the purple hair is hilarious. That's one vivid wig! (or did you actually dye your hair that colour?)

I love how this turned out. Very woodsy. Aubree did a nice job on the needlebook. It's a cute design. I know what you mean about this projects that take such a long time. I have one I'm about ready to pitch!

I seen that pretty LK exchange. Aubree did a great finish with the personalizing too.

As a farmer focused on livestock, I require tractors for tasks such as feeding and transporting manure. The John Deere 4440 looks appealing, but I’m also looking at the John Deere 5020 for more robust field operations. For tillage, the John Deere 4640 appears to be a solid option, while the Kubota B7100 might be suitable for everyday tasks. Finally, I’m still contemplating whether the John Deere 1010 would offer better versatility for my farm. Which one do you recommend?
