Tuesday night I finished part 3 of my St. Petersburg chart.

Time consuming with all the backstitching on the wrought iron gates, but it's taking shape nicely.

Once again the pictures don't necessarily show everything quite true to colour, being that they were taken with the camera flash and indoor halogen lighting, rather than natural light. It's washing out the colours somewhat, unfortunately.



And one with more detail, you can see the Algerian eyelets and (two-tone) Rice stitches here in the part 2 I stitched:

Finished it should be close to 26 x 26 inches (about 65 x 65 cm).

What you see in the picture is about 8.5 x 8.5 inches (21.5 x 21.5 cm).

So yes, it will be quite large when completed (411 x 411 stitches). There will also be a fairly incredible amount of detail as well. Once I get to part 5 or so, that's when the buildings begin.
