Oh I love that fabric! It's perfect for this project.
I really like how it's stitching up, it looks great, well done!

I'm really into American folk designs just now (& obviously my year-of-Christmas-stitching) so this is right up my street! Love it!

I've finished finally! I am excited with the way it turned out, now I just need to get it framed. I also just found out that the MD state fair has a pretty extensive cross stitch exhibition / contest, and one of the categories is "Over 1, 25 count or higher" so I am thinking of entering this one. We'll see....

Looks simple, but isn't, am I right? Well done! How are you finishing it?

I think I am going to frame it. It might make a cute pillow though, so I am not sure yet
It is definitely a simple pattern (full crosses, no fractionals, no backstitching, no specialty stitches), it was just tedious stitching on 32 count over 1. I love the finished effect though, the stitches are so tiny

Looks great!!
Make sure you check the fair rules, some places want to see the back I think. It would be a great entry!
