Congrats Gloria! I want it! LOL I think the last counted cross stitch I did took me two years to finish. Maybe I need just a little more time between harvest and seed starting, or to learn to sew faster :) Looking forward to seeing your next project!

Beautiful!

As a person that used to cross stitch quite a bit, that was hundreds of hours of work and worth every minute. It is beautiful!

Thanks for the wonderful comments

Thanks everyone! I worked on this piece from March till now.. practically every day. Sometimes a few minutes and sometimes a few hours. Yes, I'd say there's hundreds of hours in it. It measure 11 X 14 inches. Now I need to frame it. I'd like to add pics of all my pieces that I've finished but hesitate as there is no catagory to put pics in these days. I added a few before but they disappeared with a GH update. I'll be so glad when Al can get back to us and fix things.

I love it! It's absolutely wonderful, and it looks dead on for Blue Willow China! I can only begin to imagine the number of hours you put into that. Your craftsmanship is outstanding.
