Hello everyone. What can you say about the photo? Is it nice? Pretty? Lovely? This is actually the very first project I work on. This is a cross stitch of 'The Waterfalls.' This is quite smaller than the Cherubim. I used a 14 count white aida cloth here. And boy this was difficult to do. As you notice, I actually prefer the block out cross stitch. Meaning you will need to crosstitch every single block. If yiu can enlarge it, on the lower left side, there are still some spaces that I haven't filled up. That is because as far as I can remember, I cannot see the legend in the pattern anymore and was not able to find the same pattern in stores. How do you think I should finish this one?

Well done, Ms. Rach! Just put that in a frame and hide the space on the sides.

This is very nice. I can see the missing spaces, but I think you can let it as it is.

@rakski This is the problem, it is too hard to find the same pattern.

@LadyDuck oh yes. That is why when I decided to make the cherubim, I photocopy the pattern and keep it so I can still have a copy.

It's beautiful. But you must finish those at the side. However, if you put it in a frame it could be just folded to look like complete.

You could add a bear crossing through the river or a set of clouds on top but if you leave like it is, it would still be nice

i think you can use your creative imagination to fill up those vacant spaces with the better shades of color.

Certainly you should finish it. It is very lovely and I think you could fill in the empty squares without a pattern.
