Crossstitchforum - A FREE forum for Cross Stitchers

So this is my first SAL. I am really excited about this project although I know it will take a while to finish! I own the artwork through a purchased album and another member created the pattern for me. I don't believe I am infringing on any copyright laws. If the member who created the pattern for me would like to post in this thread letting you know who she is, that is fine with me. You did a fantastic job and I look forward to showing you the finished product!!

All this being said, I am having issues uploading pictures. I read the FAQ's and am still not getting it. I would love to post a picture directly into my text as so many of you are doing. If someone could help me out, that would be fantastic!!

Looking forward to seeing this one!

I hope this works! Here is the first corner!

great start--looking forward to your next update

Good start. I am looking forward to your next update.

great start - glad you got the photo problem sorted can't wait to see more

Which album cover will it be? Can't wait to see more, great start!

Can't wait to see this one when you are done. Good luck!

Nice start!!!!!!

Here's the deal with the picture: It came in one set or another that my husband got (he has all the albums and even box sets that have the same songs!! *Boys*). My scanner is being dumb, so I found the picture online and asked someone to create the pattern for me and make it the same size as a record album. So it is not an actual album cover (he has those already mounted), but it is a picture included in an album that I am turning into a record sized cross stitch. Our media room is full of framed record albums and I thought this would be a great birthday present for him to add to his wall! I am almost done with the first section (of 36!!). Will post pics when done with this section! Thanks for all the support and well-wishes!

Great start

Brilliant start!! Looking forward to seeing this grow!!

I did an album cover for my hubby a few years ago (Be Bop Deluxe) and he has it hanging in his 'guitar room'!!

Nice start.
