I wanted to post this to see what you all think. I was about to decide that I did not really care for this, but think that maybe it is growing on me - it is a very time consuming project - each panel has 43,776 stitches, and you stitch 8 panels. Each panel is measuring 6.25L x 4.75W and has 8 color changes. What do you think?

I think it's stunning! I'd finish it if I were you! I only have a 4" hoop so FSL doiley designs are limited, and I have no idea how to digitise FSL for myself. Definitely a flower for you!

Love

I think it is worth finishing. It would be beautiful with a large vase of roses sitting on it. Very nice!

That is a beautiful design. Where is it from? If you choose not to finish it as a doily, you could use that piece as the "V" on a v-neck shirt. That would be stunning too. Would the design fit diagonally in a 4 inch hoop?

I posted the site below - No, it probably would not fit diagonally in 4x4 hoop - it is stitched out in a 5x7 diagonally - However, it has a bowl that comes with it, and the base is done in 4x4, but not sure about the sides. If I ever get this done will let everyone know.

I think it's a beautiful design and agree with sewhobby, it would be lovely on a shirt or on a pocket on the front of a blouse.

This is BEAUTIFUL, I love the rich colors and the size. I am stuck with 4x4 and you know, this could be use as a single bookmark. Where is Shirl? lol, but if you are not satisfied with the outcome you can always mail it to me for I love it.

This may be very time consuming, but I think it is just simply exquisitly gorgeous. I would say well worth the time. Maybe do one panel every couple days so you don't get too flustered with it?!?! *4U ><>

Beth, this is breathtakingly beautiful. I would finish it, of coarse. It would be time consuming and use lots of thread - but that is all it is - thread - when it can be a work of art like this - no question, but to finish it, huh? But you be the judge of what you want to work on, Hehehe! Of coarse you might loose it, once someone sees it. *4U

You may be right - had a friend see it stitching out, and after she fussed about the color choices decided that it would be very nice. Thanks for the encouragement.

Very pretty indeed. For those with a 4x4 hoop, that site says that the set is a mix of 4x4 and 5x7, but don't see anything about which design(s) are what size. Nice free design of a sprig of flowers.
