Sheila, that is amazing! You must get cross-eyed! Takes counted cross a few steps higher so you must have a lot of patience. No wonder you work on it a few rows at a time. It is gorgeous!

Thanks for showing us Sheila's talent, Beth.

That's beautiful. I wouldn't have the patience to do something like that.

Sheila, if you ever run out of people wanting one, I'd love one. I'd pay! It truly is sensational.

it's strange you work from the inside out... so start in the middle and go out...one of the reason's to only doing a few rows on this one is I have to take off my glasses to see it and after awhile I need to put my glasses on... the crochet one I usually only do two rows as it's wide or long not sure which but my hands prefer only two rows...
and it looks hard it's not.... counted cross stitch I simply can't do... that is way harder and believe or not this relaxes me. :lol:
unfortunately in my opinion this material isn't very cuddly it's a more hang and and look pretty but the one I crochet is wrap up in and totally feel warm and secure
thank you for all your kind words... it strokes the ego and some times that is so needed
