Adding background...


or Why I Hate 1 over 2 Half Crosses:



I spent the weekend putting in the border and the background of half crosses. It went on forever and I'm still not done and I hate "Pale gold brown" with a vengeance!

Feel like such a newb but what is a 1 over 2 half cross? I really only started getting into the technical side of stitching. I use to just do easy patterns.
