A FINISH TO SHOW OFF!

 I have accomplished something this week!  Yea Me!!!  I finished Country Cottage's first block of the Santa Village. I was trying to get this finished by the end of the month.. I have the second one to get started on now. I will be finishing them all as cubes that stand upright.  I used the called for linen and threads. I did change the berries to a satin stitch to give it some texture.

I have been stitching on Brenda's ( WTN&T ) Be My Valentine when I go to bed at night. I had to substitute some of the colors. I think I have matched pretty well. Can't wait to start on the Alphabet tonight. Watching my TV shows, The Middle and Modern Family. 
Will check back in later......
