    I agree -- it is truly a great job. I'd want to preserve it too.

    This is a project I finished this winter. I recognize it's a little different subject matter, and certainly not one for everyone to like.

    I started with a photo, enlarged it on a photocopier and drew a 1" grid on it. All the pieces in the pieced version are 1" finished, though each of those might have had several seams if the colours landed that way.

    I took it to be stretched as after all this work, I didn't want to learn on this one, and risk ruining it! It's about 24"x27".

    For comparison, I'm posting both the original photo and my pieced work.
    Wonderful job of intrepreting the photo! ^5!
