Armenian Gendje carpet finished, being blocked!

I finished stitching the miniature Gendje carpet (from the McNaughton's first book) last night!  Hooray!




It's now being blocked, and I shall finish it with fringe over the next few days.  So glad to see this little thing done, and I'm so happy that the mistakes I made I either picked out or disguised :)

    Thanks for your comments: I'm so glad it's done :) I think it's one of the prettiest mini rug charts I've ever seen!

    Hi Nina - it's looking good, and I'm sorely tempted to start one myself... but I have been so so busy! Back from Easter hols - so surprise will be winging it's way to you relatively soon!

    Thanks so much, everyone! I really love this carpet :) If you feel tempted to have a go, DO! It's really easy -- just one stitch -- and if you pick a fairly simple chart to start with, and a small project (like a cushion) you won't get overwhelmed :)
