tried this out..Got my machine back so I decided to test it lol

it's lovely ( but a lot of time and work).

wow it was totally worth it! SHOW IT OFF! HUgs & *************2all, Loralye

I'd applique it on the back of a denim jacket and wear it. It's gorgeous and you did a wonderful job. People love to see things like that so why not show it off?

Great work. Well done. I think my machine (and me) would have had a nervous breakdown. Sarah.

A lot of work here - maybe you can frame it or make a pillow out of it.

Incredible. I have yet to do anything over 16,000 stitches. I must admit I have been looking at it for awhile. Thanks for sharing it! LLDS!

It is beautiful. However, that was a lot of time!

It is so beautiful but I think I would have trashed it or stopped my machine for a while I do that a lot when It takes a long time

lol I get falling asleep in the bean bag ..I started it at 8pm not a good idea

Have to admit that I'm not patient enogh for those kind of designs :-)
I have some beautiful designs from emblibrary that have also a very high count of stitches, colors and thread changes that I must have cause I love the design but never will stitch them (or just when I can afford a 16needles-machine ;o)

Do you have a friend with a fish tank? That will be a pretty gift for him/her in a frame :o)

Sieht aber sehr gut aus

die Arbeit hat sich gelohnt schönes Design

10 hours yes, but what success is wonderful. Your choice of colors is well suited. Congratulations.

Woah! What a lot of work. I think framing it would be good too!

I say you should frame it. Nice work.

looks nice to many hours for one design

it did take a long time..but half way thru didn't have the heart to scrap it...

I downloaded this recently ... and after your explanation will probably never stitch it out. It is beautiful, though. I was going to make it for one of my daughter's pediatrician's rooms. It's decorated in fish!
