Oh my goodness, Vanessa you amaze me.

This is so beautiful and beautifully stitched :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

Your patience and skill in stitching such a large project is mind-blowing, and you still have another 10 pages to go.

The colours from the light are so rich and the whole piece is so atmospheric.

Amazing, simply amazing.

Your stitching is just fabulous. :) I must admit that I really didn't like it at first, having not been acquainted with this version of the painting, but I see the draw now and you've done it justice. Excellent! :applesauce:

Vanessa this is absolutely wonderful, the warmth of the light shines out (which is rather the point) the neatness of your stitches on a project this size is astounding.

:whoop: and now you're on the last row :whoop: at the speed you stitch you will have this finished in no time.

Everything about this is amazing, the sheer size, the warmth, the colours, the speed of your stitching and how lovely and neat your stitches are. Astounding and outstanding.
:applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce: :applesauce:

How will you finish this Vanessa? Will it be framed?

Do you have your next project in mind?

Thank you for your kind comments, it really means a lot to me.
Yes I would like to get this one framed because I really love this painting. As for my next project I will be going back to my Golden kite called The adoration of the kings. It is much bigger than this one and I still have 154 pages to go out of 252.
