Grace's Second Birthday Gift

Women on Mom's side of the family have long embraced the tradition of embroidered dresser scarves, so I decided to make one for Grace this year.

Here's half of it, the other half is almost exactly identical. David selected the colors from a selection of thread from the sampler I made for Grace's birthday last year.

A mysteriously greenish look at one end.

It's drying on a towel now. I would have had the whole thing completely done but can't figure out how to adjust the tension on my sewing machine to hem it properly. I considered hand stitching the hem, but they are such long sides and the stitches will be very visible -- I just need to deal with the sewing machine. After that, this will be done in five minutes.
