YAY!!!!! I *DID* finish the piece I want to give my mom along with her other gifts. I have worked on it every spare minute I had-which hasn't been that many since last week :) But in the end I did get it finished in time.....I LOVE this and I hope mom will as well :) Many of you know that my mom is an avid gardener as well as has her own greenhouse/nursery business :) That's one of the reasons I chose this particualr design-the other reason is self evident!!



I used a lovely piece of lace under the trim. I like what that adds :)
