It is coming along really beautifully and you are amazing at sticking with it so well. I think I would have given up by now.

Great update and very well done.

Beautiful work! The stitching really mimicks the style in which it was painted.

Page 3 is finally done :dance: :dance: Confetti took on a whole new meaning doing the top tree bit - there were large chunks where I don't think I managed more than a couple of stitches without changing the blend :shock: Still, I'm now more than half way across the width of the piece :D
