My mom's done samplers. Well, alright: singular. My sis and I kinda threw her out of the groove.

Thanks, Kristina! I used a software program called Pattern Maker to change the images into cross-stitch patterns...and there are a LOT of colors in those little things, about 40 in each of the ones with a ship. Only three in the plain logo. Each ornament took 17-19 hours of stitching time.

Holy whoa, that *is* a lot of work. Makes me appreciate mine all the more.

And I can certainly vouch for how impressive they look. Even if I have absolutely no clue about the technique involved.

While I'm sure she's pleased with how impressed all of you are, 17-19 hours is not a lot of time for Blueberry and her craft projects. Most projects take her far longer than that.

Check out the times on her works in progress: http://mmeblue.home.comcast.net/wips.html
