Seeing Double

 My 2015 cross stitch challenge is coming along. My goal is to have the border done my January first.


 Of course I ran into an issue. Look at how close to the edge it is.When I began this years ago, I didn't start in the middle like you are supposed to. I'm not sure what I was thinking but that's not going to work.


You can see in the package photo that in order to frame it, I'm going to need more room at the top.


I solved the problem by buying another kit for practically nothing from someone on Ebay. Now I have more fabric and more thread so I can start over and make as many boo boos as I want and still end up with it done-hopefully by 2016.

    Well, that was a good solution. I have an ABC sampler I should finish and some others as well.
