Description
And now for something completely different...This is a cross-stitch kit that I finished back in 2005, but only got around to mounting last month. So lazy. But yeah, I liked how it looked in the frame and all that, so I took a picture to share, while the actual piece sits on my wall

Thank you, I'm glad that you like it
As for where I got it, I am up in Canada, actually, and I got it though a catalogue for a store called Mary Maxim, which sells all kinds of crafty things. Sadly, I don't think that will help you too much looking in the states. I don't think it will be as hard to find there as it was here though, since right after I finished that one, I got the SAME KIT from my aunt for xmas Funny how that sort of thing goes. All I can suggest is to look around for a craft store in whatever area you're going to, I know theres a few chain stores that sell that sort of thing, though their names escape me
And you could always try Wal-Mart.
Good luck with your search, and enjoy your trip!

I did this same one as a paint-by-number. How long did it take you to complete?

Not entirely sure, actually. I sort of picked at it over the span of a year or so. An hour here, 2 there, ect.

what luck! I found it! One quick question, the black cloth, does it make the piece more difficult?

This is gorgeous and it see good to see a fellow slower cross stitcher. Some of the stitchers on Stitching Pirates are so very quick.

Thank you
It did take a good bit of time, though more than it needed too, as I tended to work on it sporatically. Things take longer when you work on them a couple hours.... a month

That often? i'm a big believer in taking your time
no piece of work should ever become 'trying' or 'boring'... it's good to have variety

This is wonderful, their eyes are stunning and the darkness around them is detailed as much as their fur.
Gorgeous!

I think it was about a month or so of working on it... Spread over a year
I just tended to pick at it here and there.
