How precious. I have never tried anything like this, is it difficult? I am unfamiliar with CrossStitchXpress. Does it take your pricture and convert to the cross stich design from something you scanned? I would love to try this. I lost both of my parent within 9 months of each other, and would love to do something like this for my siblings.

what a sweet idea. I'm sure they would love it.
Sorry about your parents. Perhaps I can help you with the digitizing? Just don't know how to contact you./Gunilla
Thank you for your response. After seeing this I went to the site and researched the program. I recently purchased 4D prof from Viking, and found they have a program that should allow me to do this. I just have some learning to do. I have never done anything like this. You have done beautiful work.

That is just amazing. So very special! Were your parents able to see it? I'm very new at embroidery and I see all these wonderful projects. I'll NEVER get bored! Thanks for sharing. Nora in Florida.

Your parents are obviously very special, and what a lovely way of showing that you love them. It will be a beautiful family heirloom in days to come, much better than just a photo. A flower for you gunnsan, you're very clever.

Wow, how lovely. Is this some sort of program that you purchase then scan the photo into? Hmmmmmm! *4U

That's pretty awesome. Flower for u, just left click on the little orange flower while you are logged into Cute, easy as pie. :-) If the flower is grey then you have either already given a flower or you are not logged in. M
