Wow, Look what I Did

 I can believe I actually finished this -almost. I worked really hard to get this all stitched. I learned a lot by stitching this. Heaven knows it isn't perfect.  

The front:

The back:

This is what I have left to do, glue the green page to the linen, front and back. It was a little scary having to tear of the cover of the mini book but now it is ready to be glued back in.

I had already traced the date when I started this so I didn't try to change it to 2021. I was supposed to completely encrust the cover with sequins and beads but opted to just scatter them. It has a loop for hanging on a Christmas tree and red silk ribbon ties to hold the book closed.

I did it!!
