Finally received the skein of spice i fell short for last 3 rows.
Finishes last 3 rows. Now just need to weave in last ends. Luckily did a lot in between
Then add the apricot stripe for may 2014, birth of Veerle
And think of an effect for10 yr marriage
Not sure if I will add a border or not
Somehow last 6 rows my tension seemed to be looser, it is 4 cm wider now at top. I think after blocking and adding border it will not show
