This snowy owl was meant for my Aunty's 60th birthday, but sadly she passed away just prior so it has taken a while for me to feel up to finishing it off, hopefully it will be finished soon and I will frame with a plaque in memory of her.

This one is five in a row, and I finished this after my son was born last year, I had started it 2 years prior with my first pregnancy, but we lost the baby early in pregnancy so again I found it hard to finish. Now it is and it's ready to be framed!

I hope the snowy owl will always have great memories of your aunt attached to it -- it is a gorgeous piece!

Big projects always have a way of carrying so much of the emotion we deal with when stitching it.. Both pieces are lovely and I hope each will give you comfort when you when think of those moments.

That snowy owl is gorgeous and I always like things with cats.

It is definitely true that large projects like these have emotions built in. Good idea with the remembrance plaque.
