I think this might have been the first embroidery project I’ve ever done. I started it maybe 2 or 3 years ago, I’m not even sure when it was.
I remember why I put it aside though. I started getting to the small states on the east coast and they were getting a lot harder to do with this stitch outline and I got frustrated.
I can’t decide if I should just finish it or if I should start over in a different style. I would like to have a stitched map!
Have you recently rescued any long forgotten projects?
I think you should finish it…it would look great as a companion piece with the 50 States Stitching Club quilt!
Maybe I can make an enormous map and stitch all the stitching club designs on their respective states!
This is so cute!!!!!! You should totally finish it. I mean you’re so close! I’m channeling you some motivation 🙂

Thanks! I just can’t decide if it is worth finishing one I don’t love completely but is almost done or if I should start over and hope to do a better job.
I have so many of these long, lost projects! I might have to go digging in the closet this week. I love this piece–I hope you find a way to enjoy it again!
New follower here, I think this is so cute! I would totally finish it! I have a US Map project that I want to do. I just need to get started on mine.
And I agree that it would be perfect along with the 50 States embroidery project 🙂
love it! finish for sure,
I love this!!! You should definitely finish it! I agree with Mollie, it would go great with her stitching club 🙂
Oh yes, finish it, you are nearly there. What are you going to use it for? Will it go on the wall, or make a fabulous cushion cover or something else?
I had planned on putting it on the wall, but it might be nice as a pillow!
You definitely need to finish it because it’s so pretty!
i think you should finish it! id love to do a big embroidered map (should we ever have the wall space for one…)
I’m tempted to just start over on a bigger one that I would like more instead of finishing one I don’t love.
