    Well done! I love how colorful it is. Much more colorful than the x-stitch project I'm trying to finish!

    I don't know where I am going to hang it. Rapunzel IS her favorite princess though! I have completed another pattern in this same style that is of The Little Mermaid and this artist has at least 8 other princess patterns in this style too. One day I would love to make them all and make a huge gallery wall of them... but who knows if that will actually ever happen since they are so big and take so long.

    @GlazeFamily3 Question, how come the stitches look so "fluffy" so "full"?

    I use three strands of string when I stitch. Cross stitch thread comes as six strings that you separate prior to stitching. A lot of people use two strands, but I like it to look more full so I use three.

    It's kind of fun how many of us used to cross-stitch before taking up digiscrapping.

    I have another question! I looked at her patterns and they are amazing! Do the patterns use DMC floss?

    Simply stunning!
    How you do that fine detail work in a moving car is beyond comprehension to me though.

    I use to cross stitch but find that my eyes have hit the point where I can't see it as well and actually gives me a headache to try it.

    I always used 2 pieces of thread; never heard of using 3.

    I just prefer the look of three strands on Aida cloth. If I stitch on linen or evenweave, I only use two strands.

    Oh WOW! I love the colors and the pattern! How fun! I used to do a lot of cross stitch myself, so I know this took some serious time to finish! :) Now the fun part... getting it framed and hung up in your house! :)
