Project Progress: Whole Lotta Bastin' Going On

I feel like I've been stitching on this Midwestern Landscape project forever, and although it is really coming together in a great way, I am getting impatient to see it finished.

There are so many little pieces and parts going together right now, they are basted and pinned, and I'm in the process of hand sewing them all down.

The next step is adding the last "layer" to the picture, all the little tiny pieces that will make it complete. Oh, and yeah, and after the hand sewing is all done, I do still have to finishe the edges with binding, too. Phew!
