Mountain Scene

Post by merrywether »

Since it had been awhile since I had stitched anything for my husband, I told him to pick out a pattern for me to stitch for his office at work.

Here is the finished product:

It took forever but he loved it. It is a pattern from artecy.com, if you are interested.

How big is it? The stitches look tiny!

Thanks all! It took several months. We had it framed (first time I have taken a cross stitch anywhere to be framed...not cheap!).

Here it is framed:

Here is the info on the pattern:
Stitches = 230w x 173h
16.5" x 12.5" using 14count (mine was done on 28ct over 2, so the same size as 14ct)
Colours = 68

Lovely! If you step back, it looks more like a painting or a photo than a cross stitch :D

Great job!
