Here is my lighthouse Round Robin finished, washed and ironed. Isn't it stunning. It was started June 14, 2007 and finished March 27, 2011.
A huge thank you to all my lighthouse keepers. There were many grumbles, complaints and even some cursing as each lighthouse was stitched. They are Stoney Creek designs and some lighthouses had over 50 colors and many, many color changes. It was indeed a labor of love. I will be taking it home to Canada to have it framed.

That is just amazing. The colors are just beautiful in the piece. And I love the idea of all the "lightkeepers" stitching this piece. Just beautiful!
WOW! It looks amazing, can't wait to see it framed and hanging in your home...
Three cheers for you Kathy!
It looks fabulous. It seems like a long time ago that we laid out the fabric and played with the placing of all those lighthouses. What a great feeling for you to have it completed.
Congratulations!!!

Way to go Kathy! It is gorgeous!
It's absolutely gorgeous!
Hooray! It's stunning!
It's wonderful, Kathy! How special this piece is. That sailboat border is just darling. I like Stoney Creek's designs but they are pretty fiddley, aren't they?
Wow! That is just wonderful. Not only is it a beautiful piece, but to have many of your friends work on it is just fantastic! Stoney Creek designs are really detailed, but they sure do turn out gorgeous. I, too, love the sailboat border - really makes it a whole!
What an amazing group effort--I just love it Kathy! Congratulations on finishing such a lovely heirloom!
what an amazing piece - well done to all those involved..
Wow, stunning is an understatement!
Everything about it is fantastic. How wonderful to have so many good friends put forth their talents and display them this way. Definitely something to cherish for a liftime!
I look forward to seeing it framed in your new home this summer.
Wow that is one fantastic piece and well done to all the lighthouse keepers.

It looks absolutely amazing Kathy!!!

I'm proud to have stitched on this for you.
I also must say it looks like you had a great time at the Attic with all of your stitching friends.
It's lovely to put a face to Annette and Bette being as they are blogging friends and now friends in RL.
Hugs
Oh Wow, Kathy. It really did turn out beautifully! I can imagine all the grumbling. I always say I will never do a Stoney Creek anything and end up falling in love with a pattern and just have to do it up. So I do understand all the work that has gone into it. Everyone did a fabulous job. You will have to post again when you get it framed.
What a beautiful piece, and what wonderful memories of stitching friends must go along with it!
The Lighthouse RR is gorgeous and I love what you used for the border.
Wow! That's awesome... and you finished it on my b-day even more special!
