Chookshed Challenge #4 - Lanarte - 3 vases cross stitch

This has been a very very long term project.  
(And as it's already the 29th - I'm just scraping in)

Back in 1985, I finished one of a set of 3 vases of flowers - designed by Lanarte.

It appears I finished the second one a fair while after that - I'm guessing 2018.

For the last couple of years, I have added this project to challenge lists and made some progress on it each time.

Finally, it's done:


and the other two:

  

I will need to add initials & year to the second one and stitch the frame.

I really think I may need to get these framed...

I remember when that pattern came out and I loved it at the time. The best bit is, they haven’t dated and are still beautiful. Well done on finally completing the set. They are definitely worth framing.
