Re: my latest project ..........
That is stunning. Absolutely stunning.
Re: my latest project ..........
It's looking fantastic!
I did this design a few years ago, it has pride of place over the fireplace, sadly most visitors do not realize it is cross stitch, they think it is a print
It was my first venture into couching, not as hard as I thought it would be

Re: my latest project ..........
So this piece isn't all cross stitch then? It has this crouching in it as well?
