I took a break away from stitching my castle but I didn't take a break from stitching. This is called Ferry House and measures 5"x7". It was a kit, complete with the frame. I should have scanned it before I framed it but I didn't, so I took this photo of it, the best I could do.

Wow, that’s amazing, especially with the “water reflection” part!

The water reflection, according to the kit, was supposed to be done with two threads same as the house, and full crosses (XXX) but I decided to do it with one thread and left off some stitches and did others just in tent stitch (////). I'm happy with the result.

It looks good.
I wouldn't know where to start with stuff like that.
I am not a crafts or arts person at all

@BarBaraPrz
I on the other hand don't like to work with my hands unless it's fence building or vardening

Thank you. But as I've said before, this creates patience.

Very nice. I just haven't been in the mood to get back to my cross stitching.

I know how that goes. You'll get back to it when you get back to it.

Nice Ferry house. I thought it was a mill.

@BarBaraPrz i don't really have time for that sort of thing, all my sewing and other creative activities are directed towards functional items.
