That is brilliant. You have worked so much on it and produced an absolutely inspirational piece.

It's a gorgeous picture, superbly converted & brilliantly stitched. What more can I say? Apart from the fact I love Holly, I suppose!
Well worth the 3 years it has taken. You must be so pleased and proud of yourself. With good reason. This is superb. Congratulations. It deserves to hang in pride of place in the house where you can see it every day.

Regards,

Richard.

A great finish on a lovely design. *wonders whether Richard will notice the cat first, or the stitching :-) *

Well I am a :puppy: person too....But! We had a Tabby and he looked like Holly, and I loved him!

Wow! This is superb, it brings out the character of the cat perfectly.

Superb work, BizzzieLizzie! :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: What can I say, it looks wonderful and is professionally stitched.


I also am baffled how you can "park" all the threads and recognize them. I am trying to teach myself this method.
