Fantastic work & every time I see this I am amazed at just how well you are doing with it. A truly momentous piece of art in itself as well as superb cross stitching. :whoop: :whoop: :applesauce: :applesauce: I still think it should be hung in an art gallery once completed as it us just superb.

Vanessa! You are the fastest stitcher I have ever seen. Congratulations on finishing Page 93. :applesauce: I cant imagine how such a large stitching project can be done without a squad of elfs-assistants. How large will it be when finished? What is the count or is it evenweave? It looks an incredible amount of work and not simple at all. I take off my hat to you as a stitcher.
