omg i think that is absolutely awesome, a 30 year old would be proud of that, no disrespect but so much harder on older eyes.  What a wonderful woman and what an inspiration. WOW

I do cross stitch and I'm not sure I would have tackled anything like that!

What a fantastic heirloom!

Isn't it incredible? All those subtle changes of colour for the skin tones. She must be an amazing lady to know, Chrissy.
I hope that you will tell her how amazed we all are with her wonderful workmanship.
