Another WIP Bites the Dust!

I pulled out Hunt Sampler this afternoon and finished it -- hooray! I have a note on the chart that I began it in April 2007; it's stitched on 40 count Light Exampler from Lakeside Linens (I love their linen!) and the fibers are DMC 3051 and DMC 3722. I'm very pleased with the way it turned out.
I dug down in the WIP pile and found another long-term project to finish. I bought this little kit in London in 2001 and it's time to get it done! The fabric is evenweave and is kind of a dark yelllow color. I'm not sure what the fibers are; they are the ones that were in the kit. This guy will probably become my Sunday afternoon stitching project until he's done.
