For more pictures, including close-ups of the individual buildings, you can visit Joy's photo album here. If you have time, check out her other stitching projects too. She's a very talented stitcher.
Isn't Cobblestone Village amazing? I've seen it close up and in person. WOW! The project is 46 inches long, uses 63 different colors of DMC floss, plus a blending filament and one metallic thread. The backstitching alone would have been my undoing. All of those bricks, the intricate details...it makes my brain hurt just to think about it.
Joy you did a tremendous job! I'm so impressed with this project, and your stitches are beautiful as usual. It is awesome. Way to go, Sis!

A big happy dance for your talented (and persistant!) sister!
Wow, that is absolutely sensational, Chelle - not only is your sister talented, she must be dedicated as well, to even attempt that! Great to see you back online again - I took you off my favorites because I thought you had disappeared from cyberspace for good, but now you're back, I will put you back on my fave list again!
Love the photos of the winning entries in that show too - some stitchers are just too skilled for words to describe. I admire them all.
What a gorgeous finished piece! Very impressive that she stuck to it and was able to complete it. Wow!
That is quite amazing - thanks for sharing a photo!
Truly amazing and awesome piece.
