Woo-hoo!

I did it! I finally completed the EGA's Individual Correspondence Course in Jacobean Crewel. It only took me three-times the estimated time to complete. The letter is really nice and encouraging; I'm thrilled. To top off my excitement, I was invited to exhibit in the Education Show at the National Seminar! I can't get it ready for this year, but hope to do so next year in Louisville.
Here are the pieces I submitted, the main piece above and samplers below. The thick notebook, behind the samplers, includes my required paper, bibliography, and notes and research materials.
This was really fun.
