Total: 7

      This year I managed to finish a couple of designs that I had burnt out on, like Bird Cottage, which I stitched off and on for about a year, and Bluebird Peaches, which took about two years. This is also the year I started stitching more large designs in my usual, unrestrained manner, such as Teresa Wentzler's Mermaid, Mirabilia's Deepest Love, and Dimensions' Graceful Swans, all of which eventually reached my UFO pile, taking nearly forever to finish.
      As for my year 2000 finishes, Mai, The Mermaid, and Be Mine were from kits, Bluebird Peaches was my second internet "freebie," and the rest were from leaflets/booklets.
