I made some good progress with Amy Mitten's Queen. I measured how tall the casket was and figured out where I needed to put the bottom edge of the design.
Not a lot left to do and she will be finished. I've ordered another book of blackwork designs in my quest to find a design to put on either side of the queen I figure that I need to stitch 45 stitches on each side to fit the entire top of the casket. I ran out of thread to finish her hands. But I can finish everything else. I think she is gorgeous.
Off to a test today.
