This was a fun kit to do and well worth the time.

This is a photographic record of a counted cross-stitch that I am currently working on. I will try and update the images regularly. You'll just have to keep coming back to see what the final picture really is :) :)

For the first 40 frames, in the above animation, I was cross-stitching three to four strands of thread per picture. Each strand makes about 70-90 cross-stiches, and is made up of 2 threads. The color of each thread in a strand may or maynot be the same color. Blending colors and outlining, can give some very nice effects. As you will see throught the above animation.

For frames past the 40th, I used anywhere from 4 strands to whenever I decided to take a picture. I found, I liked cross-stitching more than taking pictures and updating this site. So from here on out know that, YES I am working in the background and YES I'll update this page as well.

I did finished and had on my wall by x-mass 2002!

Here are some closeups:
