Did you ever enjoy working on a project, but at the same time been so tired of it you couldn't wait to be done? Here it is, in size 80 thread coming in at 10 1/2 inches, a little wider than my scanner bed. Judging from my motif last time, I estimate it would be around 14 inches or more in size 40.
Now, to finish. I need to clip off the thread ends. I worked in the ends as I went along, but I left long tails to prevent the chance of pulling out the ends in the stretching/blocking process. That's not usually a worry, but with these tiny rings, there weren't a lot of stitches to work the ends into.
Oh, and to get this written into modern notation, which was the point to begin with.

That's simply STUNNING. I really admire you taking on (and winning) this task.
