The Artwork (below) I am transforming this time was taken from a church window n Portugal. After a fizzled
start my son talked me into as he put it, "My Masterpiece". So off I went and made what I believe will be
at least a five year project using the following: 14 x 20 inches stitched out using 16 count which
gave a final count of 72,900 squares.

The final number of colors I deceided on is 190. Below is a picture of the colors I had to
buy and did not yet have. You are looking at about 120 different colors of the 190.

So to track this project I decieded to take a picture after every 2000 squares of completed work.
hope you enjoy the journey as much as I do stitching it.
