I stitched this small sampler at the Victoria Day long weekend, although I did three evening shifts straight. Poor me:(

Souvenir de France









fabric: 100% cotton evenweave 28ct

I love the pattern at the first sight. As soon as I saw the chart being posted this morning, I started stitch and I finished it! Oops, did I have lunch today?
