WOW Meari..that is just beautiful!
Gorgeous
So pretty!
Wow that is a beautiful cross stitch Meari WTG it is coming along nicely.
I am just in awe of your incredible work. Are the gardens hard to do? or just time consuming? (I'm really good at specialty stitching, so that won't be an issue)
That is a beautiful piece and a lot of work by the looks of it.
Oooh Meari , just love your stitching !!!

That is such a gorgeous piece, and wow all that detail. I've never tried a piece that involved and do so admire those of you that do. Loved your little ort jar in your previous post, what a cute mouse.

Such a lovely piece, and your stitching is so neat and pretty!
Very pretty. Will be stunning when finished.
Absolutely gorgeous, Meari! Thank you for sharing and inspiring. I have Weeping Willow Court and Mystery Castle K in stash and keep pushing them back for other things--this is really making me want to start one!

Gorgeous piece Meari.
This is a stunning project Meari! I always envy those who work on Chatelaine's. Do you ever get bored with stitching the same segments over 4 times?
Such beautiful work! Perhaps someday I'll do Chatelaine work.
That's beautiful! I love the way you took your pictures at an angle. What a neat idea!
