Wow! That is amazing...I've seen other people do that, but have never been brave enough to try it.

You did a wonderful job on this. Your son's portrait is very lifelike.

Very talented Mother and very handsome Son!
Questions: How long did it take, how difficult, fused first then stitched, how many colors used, would you recommend a class, and are you going to do more??????
