I started this back in October or November last year but had a problem with the grid on one side. After much unpicking & muttering, I managed to finish the stitching & finish the whole thing properly today. This piece is stitched in memory of my friend June who passed away from breast cancer in Feb 2008. It is almost the 2 year anniversary of her death. I bought the kit from Elegant Stitch and all proceeds go towards breast cancer research.

This is so gorgeous! I am sure you thought of your dear friend with every stitch. Beautiful.
That's gorgeous! Biscornus are my favorite little accessory. Unfortunately most of the ones I've made were for exchanges so I only have one in my own little collection!
