    Guess I never showed the finished end result. I had a guy email me from clubgp asking for the pictures because they don't work in that old thread for some reason. I had them all still, but never took the finished framed result.

    So, here ya go:
    The 12 pages of "code"

    a close up of the "code"

    Each symbol reflects on what color thread to use, and each little square gets an X of thread, hints the name cross stitch.

    the work begins:








    Framed up:




    I think she did a truly awesome job on it! No way in hell would I be able to have the time or patience to do tedious work like that.

    Geeesh, I remember this. She must really love you. That is an awesome thing. I think for the diehard fans, she could probably make some money doing that. I dont think I have ever seen anything like that.

    Damn Farns! I followed that, but it's been so long I forgot it was even your car. Nothing like that in my future from my wife.

    Might have last year if I was unable to figure out my cars electrical problem. I would of set it up in a empty parking spot. But with the help of everyone who helped, got it fixed and amazingly all back together before the event.

    Getting kinda old hearing that from friends and family.

    I don't want to get married or have any intentions of getting married. If she does, thats on her.

    About 12-13 months. She was averaging about 2 of the 12 pages a month.

    My wife, who is an avid crafter, wants to know how long this project took. She already has the program to transfer a pic to a pattern. Just needing to know a time line of how long it took.
