This is a wonderful design, your mother is going to love it :)
I love Thomas Kinkades paintings (I have one as a puzzle at home :D ) and stitching one of them must be fantastic!
You made a good start and I hope to see more of it soon :)

I love his puzzles too have done many of
them, thought I'd try a stitch design for a change, I also have one of his original paintings too.

I hope she loves it as much as I do, she loves his puzzles too so am sure she will. Will have to go to office tomorrow to blow up the chart as it's too small to do in artificial light
