I never knew crossstitch could be so...stylized? Detailed? Gradiented?

It looks like it's a combination of using a very small weave and a LOT of different colors! I've done a much less complicated piece on evenweave cloth before and the smaller weave makes everything look way more detailed.

This is absolutely beautiful! I love how you've really captured the look of watercolor here!

Thanks! It's my wife's actually, but she's not on Lemmy; but yours and all other comments are passed along and definitely appreciated! :D
