I think it was on 14 or 16 count cloth, so it's not real small compared to my favorite 22 or 24 count.Beckyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16670413803386079414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6905599708993799916.post-41516706938976066562009-04-22T03:44:00.000-05:002009-04-22T03:44:00.000-05:00Beautiful crossstitch.

I still have a ton of pattern books, I think I might just have to dig them out and do a piece. I can understand why your previous reader thought this was needlepoint. When it's this tiny, it's hard to actually see the cross stitch. I love the tinier stitches, too. It almost looks like a painting. <br />Chris <br />www.madcreekdesigns.blogspot.com<br />www.madcreekdeigns.etsy.comChrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13087070926994818007noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6905599708993799916.post-63650441890545140572009-04-22T02:07:00.000-05:002009-04-22T02:07:00.000-05:00Becky, isn't that needlepoint, not cross stitch? ...Becky, isn't that needlepoint, not cross stitch?
