SQ Map: Nova Totius from Kathy A - Framed

[Midge]

Oh my goodness, it's totally stunning.
My best wishes for your Dads swift recovery.

Well, April pretty much sucked a lot--sickness, death, AND taxes!--although Dad is doing very well after his surgery (thanks for everyone's well wishes!!). So, not as much got done on the map as I would have hoped, but I did get South Africa and Madagascar finished, so that's something!

Here's the full thing:



And here's the close-up of what I've done since March 23rd:



I'm hoping that May is a vast improvement, and I'm keeping my fingers crossed that I can finish not only this page, but the next one as well. I'm still on track to finish off the whole thing by the end of September, which would be 19 months after I started, and 17 months of actual working on it. Here's hoping!

My oh My, such wonderful detail & so very neatly stitched. This is going to be fabulous when finished & framed. You should be extremely pleased with all the work & hours of stitching you have put into this incredible creation. Glad to hear your father is recovering.

Great news that your Dad is improving so much but sorry that April was such a downer for you. Along with you I hope that May is a vast improvement for you.

A fabulous update on the map and in spite of the problems last month you have had good progress.

Another one I have not seen for awhile but love the progress. Sorry to hear you had a difficult April.

[Kathy_A]

Well, I finished off Row Three (Page 21) last night--woohoo!!!

Here it is (along with a bit of work started on the final row...again, woohoo!). Sorry for the wrinkles, but I'm not going to wash it until I finish:

[neecy]

Simply stunning. You should be proud of yourself. Fantastic work!

[Squirrel]

What a wealth of detail in this map and you have the finish line in sight now. An amazing update beautifully stitched.

[richardandtracy]

That is utterly brilliant. You must be, deservedly, so proud of yourself.

What more can I say other than 'Give us a photo when it's done.'?

All the best with it

Richard

[rcperryls]

Perfectly stitched! Awesome detail! Fantastic in every way!
Since I'm running out of adjectives (lovely and beautiful don't describe how amazing this piece is) I will say Congratulations on another row finished and how wonderful to be on the last row! A finish is in sight!
