Unfinished Business

This is the needlework I have taken to most of my quarterly manager meetings over the last five years. As you see, it is not yet done. This Friday is my last manager meeting and by golly I'm going to get done, or at least have it finished when my sister comes to visit at the end of March. (That brown stick tree needs leaves for one thing!) I had always thought I would frame it for her since it reminds me of her sunroom. You can tell I don't have much time for embroidery, and brought it to meetings only to keep calm in the face of meeting frustration. No more of that I hope.
