Mr Rick, what are the chances of a chart just of the moon? That's a request from my Hubby. He has a telescope that he doesn't use as much as he likes, but he saw your owl chart and asked about the moon in it. He loved the birch chart you did and it is now in my to do pile :) Oh and the whole family love the hog wash one .......er please stop doing charts now please, I'll never have time to stitch them all @rotfl:

Thanks, all.

I neglected to add the page layout so I've updated it again to include this.

Hi Heidi,
Just a moon is no problem. I'd like to do it.
How about a size? How big do you want it? 5x7, 8x10, 9x12 or what?
Moons come in various colors from yellows to oranges to whites. What color would you like it to be? Dull or bright?

The actual NASA shot I used looks like this;

As far as doing a moon thing, I thought this might be something interesting to cross stitch.
Before I continue, would this be of any interest?
The basic moon phases of waxing and waning?

I've added a little color by removing all the black and white and gray.

Seems like black Aida would be perfect for that design. Love it!

That is a fantastic idea, Vera. :applesauce:
It would certainly eliminate all the dark midnight blue that would be used. :wink:
Matter of fact, I'm going to set this chart up with that option. :D

I theory, yes, but to stitch it--I'd definitely prefer the original, but it'd have to be done a little at a time--or, I'd get bored. LOL I know, typical female, knit-picking!! :lol: :lol: The photos are just soooooooooo awesome--
