Back on this one again. Thought I would show you as I have my new R&R frame in use. I can just fit it on my floor sand so I am very happy.

It looks great Liz! Seeing your close ups and how beautiful the stitches are makes me glad I downloaded it to do some day in the future... I had no idea it was that big though, wow!

The designer is getting ready to discontinue the chart/SAL if she hasn't already done so, so if you guys are interested, you better get over there to Papillon Creations and get it. It was only one Euro to get the chart which was about $1.45 US.

Gorgeous work Liz - forgot how big this piece is! I've been so tempted to download it myself "for a rainy day" - but know I will never get around to stitching it (trying not to be a chart hoader....difficult!) so it is lovely to watch another stitcher work on it, I will live vicariously through you!

The more eagle-eyed amongst you may see the little bag that Agi stitched for me. It wasn't meant to be in the pic, it just sneaked in.
It cost me £89 to be framed which considering it's size I think is reasonably good.

That's just perfect with the little recess for the castle -- worth every penny!
