    Looks fantastic! You did a really good job, and just in time for Christmas. How long did it take you? I did a similarly sized one as my first project and it took my like 3 years because I kept forgetting about it. Haha.

      It took me about 3 weeks. I’m just glad I finished it in time, I was worried I’d be putting in the last stitches on Christmas morning lol

    Fantastic work! I mean at the rate I stitch which people say is fast that would take me…

    pulls out calculator

    About two weeks and that’s if I stitch every day.

    Beginner friendly, yes, but it requires the patience of either somebody really determined to finish it before they burn out, or someone more experienced who doesn’t struggle with common issues that slow them down.

    In fact, my first attempt was something as large as this with large solid blocks of colour and I struggled. Hard! The results were dreadful. I’m surprised I didn’t quit back then!

      This one took me about three weeks. It would have taken slightly less than that but I’ve been sick and that’s slowed me down a bit lol
