I made this for my daughter, one of her Christmas presents. It took me weeks to make it. Sad to say it's the last hand embroidery for me. Eyes and hands just not what they used to be :-) It's finally framed and wrapped! I love the old fashioned look of this, hard to find today. It was a true labor of love for me :-) The cross stitch design is by Bucilla.

Have fun with it :-) Peacock sounds pretty. It's hard on the hands for certain. Thank you for the kind words.
