Just finished this. It's Prairie Schooler's "Farmer's Almanac". I did the grass on the bottom and some of the green trim around the edge in Weeks Dye Works' "Lucky" overdyed floss. That took 2 and a half skeins to finish! This is also the piece that was damaged a few months ago - I had a huge hole in the fabric and showed in a previous blog how I darned the hole and stitched over it. Upon close inspection, you can see where the damaged spot is/was. But, unless you know it was there, you can't spot it. I'm very happy with the outcome.
