Absolutely incredible. You did such a wonderful job of tying together so many different patterns and filling in the space but not making it seem crowded. All of my favorites are there, and a lot of my daughter's favorites, too! (She kept pointing them out ) Can't wait to see what you decide to work on next. Amazing!
I've been giving this a lot of thought past few days.
Part of me wanted to donate this to a children's hospital part of my wanted to keep it for myself. After a lot of thought I've decided NOT to give it to a children's hospital. It's nothing to do with not wanting to part with it what I'm more worried about was it getting ruined. What with people touching it, many leaning up against it, have no issue giving it away but if I got ruined then I really would be heartbroken.
So for now I'm going to keep it and hang it up in my house. If I want to get rid of it in the future I will just give it away it a fellow stitcher as I know they understand all the time and effort that goes into cross stitch, so I know they would look after it.
Finished:
Massive Disney design
Freddie mercury (for my mum)
Ocras at play.

Paul, I'm so glad you've decided to go this route. It's exactly what I was hoping for. There's just so much of you in it that it would be a shame to give it away, even for a good cause. It needs to stay with you and when you're ready to part with it, it needs to go to someone who will love it and fully appreciate it like only a stitcher (or someone who loves you) can.
