\"Dimensions<\/a><\/p>\n

And, it’s done!<\/p>\n

After way too many years, this damn Dimensions “Butterfly Accents” cross stitch kit is finally done. The home stretch on this thing was a slog. The “light gold” floss was so old that it disintegrated when I was stitching with it. Thankfully, DMC had a matching color that I was able to use. But let me tell you, the backstitching on the butterfly wings was a bitch and a half. VERY tedious. I have never done cording before, so the cording for the medalion and scroll didn’t turn out 100%, but not too bad for a first time trying it.<\/p>\n

I stitched my signature “C” and added a “22” below it because that’s how many years it took to finish this damn thing. Just for reference, this blog will turn 24 in November.<\/p>\n
