Fingers Crossed...

The stress is building...
Will it ?
It has to !

Did I count correctly ?
(Probably not...)

Will the end meet the beginning ?

When you are stitching the border 
around a very large piece
(31in. x 26in.)
and you are 
HOPING...
PRAYING...
WISHING...
FINGERS CROSSED...
that when you, at finally, get to the 
place you began - that the ends 
are going to 'match up'...
(because if they  don't,
there will be SERIOUS tear out !)

YES !  Success.
(I seriously think I would have thrown 
this piece into a bag until next year,
if it didn't line up !)
