Hello everyone.
This is my angel, my cherubim.
This is a piece of artwork I am really proud of. Yes, this is a piece of art. I cross stitched this. This is what you call a blocked out cross-stitch wherein you need to cross-stitch the whole pattern from side to side, from top to bottom.
I finished this last 2000. I have not framed it though.
I will have this framed soon.
As promised, @Shavkat @sharon6345
Here is my artwork.
Hope you all like it.

That's a beautiful work of art! Good decision to have it framed so you can hang it and better admire its beauty. 
I did a few cross stitches myself but not as elaborate like yours. I have all of them framed and displayed. Of the cross stitch arts I've made only 2 was left displayed at home. I remember giving one to my auntie, a friend and the best and the hardest cross stitch I've done, that of the Blessed Virgin Mary, I gave as a gift to a teacher dear to me.

Love the rich sepia color that reminds me of old photographs.

Wow, that's a very intricate one! I used to cross-stitch a lot but I now find it hard to finish big pieces because my eyes get tired easily. I still work on small ones with the help of my daughter.
