It’s rich in color, I love it! The mat colors are a perfect choice. They complement (I think that’s the correct term) so that the needlework really stands out. How long did this take?

Beautiful! I wish my hands would allow me to still do counted cross stitch.

I marvel at your ability to complete such a complex design. I don't have the skill or patience for something so difficult! Excellent job!

Thank you, all! Carabubble, it was in progress for at least ten years. I would work on it a while then put it away for a long while, until I felt inspired to work on it again. I finally finished it in December. The magazine with the pattern (Treasures in Needlework) was published in 1992. LOL

You can’t see in the photo, but it has lots of @&%# blending filament, metallic threads, and beads.

It is incredible and beautiful. I would never attempt something that intricate.

Donna, that is absolutely beautiful!

Framers earn their money! Yours did a super job.

And your work is superb. Love it, love it!
