Yay, definitely a happy dance for me!!!! FINALLY, I'm finished!!!!I'm really proud of this piece...took me 9 months to finish...started it in February this year then stopped working on it for 2 months as the frequent color changes drove me nuts....hehe...and now, with all your help and encouragement...I finally got it done! :dance: THANKS so much to everyone! :wub:

here's the final xstitch (out of 25, 756 stitches)....It's in DMC#3726...

Thanks, Lisa! I really love looking at it through the photos...I can't see the beauty of it by looking so close....I'm dying to have it framed so I can put it in our living room :dance: ...I'm thinking of having it in a silver frame... :)

That looks GREAT!!!!!! So special I think a silver frame would be wonderful but I would also see how it would look with a dark colored matting something green to really pull all of the colors. That is just me I think what you have done is so very impressive.

Thanks so much, Rose! :wub: Yeah, I'm also thinking of something in the shade of green for the matting...a dark green one would go very well for a silver frame ....or a cool sea green color to match with a dark colored frame....but I seem to be more in favor of the dark green one as I really like a silver frame! :) :wub:
