Stick a Fork in Her - She's Done!

I realize this is a little anti-climatic after yesterday's picture, but a finish is a finish and deserves a post! This is Unna von Bergen 1869, a freebie by Beth Twist.

I am amazed how much I love this sampler! Crazy colors, idiosyncratic boo-boos - but it works!

Thank you, Beth!
