Finally finished - 15 years in the making
Did you ever finish a project that you started 15 years ago? I just did! I started making this kroj (Czech costume) in 2006. It is a reproduction of a antique kroj. All of the embroidery and beadwork was done by hand, and that takes time.
I finished all but the collar/scarf in 2008 but the last piece was challenging for me. Cut-work embroidery is something that I had never attempted. I laid it aside many time, for years. But a few years ago I picked it back up. Today I finished! I will post more picture the next time it is work. Follow me on Facebook. The name of the page is Czech Costumes.
