That is really nice. Rare to see artists acknowledge that not all cherries ripen at the same time.
Well stitched, too. Great finish.

Regards

Richard.

I love Viktoriya Ivchenko's patterns! Your piece looks gorgeous! Do you know where in the US I can buy her patterns or kits?

Hi Amber, thank you!
Unfortunately I don't know if kits are even being sold, I bought the PDF version of my chart directly from her and got my own supplies. It wasn't a problem, all of the recquired colours were ones by DMC so easily to obtain. Moreover, one of each skein was sufficient so so worries there.

I bought my chart by just sending her a message on Instagram, this is her page: https://www.instagram.com/viktoriyaivchenko/" target="_blank
She also has a VK page which I think is more of a business page but I think you have to be logged in to see this, I'll link it nonetheless:
https://vk.com/viktoriya_ivchenko_cross_stitch" target="_blank

I wrote it directly in Russian but I'm sure if you write in English it won't be a problem for her, after all there's Google translate!

So I sent her a message about which chart I wanted to purchase, and that I wanted it in PDF format, not as a hard copy (as shipping from Russia would have been quie expensive). She then got back to me with a PayPal link and the amount I had to pay for my chart. I payed the amount and sent her my email address, so she then could send me my PDF chart.

This all went very well without any problems and I have since bought another chart from her.
