A Small Finish .....

I recently won a Rovaris Necklace Kit Giveaway from Sharon's Cross Stitch Obsession
Here is my Finish:

 I reversed the pattern & used the thread for the letter "P"  instead of using it in the background.
I so like the look of Linen - especially with red floss.

Thank you so much Sharon -
I love it !!!!

Enjoy your weekend

Beautiful! I just read the story about Molly and am so glad to see that she looks to be improving. It sounds as if she has found a loving home after being so sadly abandoned. I just don't understand how people can be so cruel. Hugs to Molly from me and my two furbabies.
