Well finally finished it at half one this morning! Stretched it on some mount board this afternoon! but annoyingly enough the cross stitch isnt 12x12in as it should be so the framing is quite bad ¬_¬ but awh well i painted the back of the frame so it doesnt show so much or noticable (waiting for it to dry >.<) ! but finally finished!the cording was quite difficult so looks a little dodgy but i love the tassle ^.^ onto my scarlet macaw! as i now have all the threads and gridded the fabric last week!
