My First Punchneedle Piece Finished!

Finished my first ever punchneedle and while it turned out ok, I did learn a lot as I went. Brend Gervais of http://www.countrystitchesonline.com/ helped me a lot and I could see improvement as I went, so hopefully the next one won't have all those pushed out loops. Other than that little loopy problem all went well and I really enjoyed it. It didn't take long to do either and I would punch for a few minutes here and there. Now all I have to do is figure out how I want to finish it. I have a new design that I drew up this time and as soon as I find the time I'll start punching again. Be sure to check out Brenda's beautiful patterns!
