I am blown away by this design! I love the detail (blackwork would you call it?) that borders the main design... The whole thing looks amazing! Great work Karen! :applesauce:

Yes it is blackwork that borders the main design and in the lower right corner the blackwork is actually over some cross stitching--very different to work--and in some places got a little tedious but the outcome was well worth it.
I did make a few changes to the design--very subtle ones in order for it to fit into a standard size frame. Now to just find the perfect frame for it :D
Thanks for all of the lovely replies :wub:

Sorry I missed this question. The design is called All Because and is an Imaginating design. I bought it from 123stitch :D
