From my side, my cross stitch is finished. I have just washed it ( has made the colours look so dark) and stretched it out to dry flat. I will then iron it and then off to the framers, hopefully tomorrow.

I have just loved doing this and has kept me busy through Covid. Thank you all for your support.

Thank you Maureen. My eyesight is terrible but I have a wonderful reading light, also a magnifying glass and of course my glasses.

It looks great even un-framed! I love these patterns with all the shadings but it doesn't help the eyesight for sure. Once I stitched a quilt on a porch with so many shades of yellow I thought I'd go blind trying to keep my place. You did very well. You can always start another....

It is GORGEOUS!!! I'm so glad you finished it. Well worth the many hours and the eye strain. Can't wait to see what the framer does with it. It is so worth the money to have works like this professionally framed.
