french knots and hearts . . . from Count it *all* JOY!

It's only appropriate that the embroidery that I put together for our road trip weekend . . .

Was finished just as we entered the last mile into the camp!

Full circle (full heart?), I'd call that! Here it is in better lighting . . .

I still need to spray out my markings and decide what to do with it now that the stitching is finished. Heh.
