Yep, it's a big project. I keep telling DH it'll take me 10 years to work on, so I won't be buying anymore cross stitch pieces. He's a little doubtful, but we'll see. So far it's fun and easy to stitch, no back stitches, just large.
OMG. That is absolutely amazing! I wonder how many of these they sell. Before I discovered stamping, I used to do counted cross stitch. I have enough projects to last until I'm 80, and I never even touch them any more. I did a religious needlepoint wall hanging for my niece when she got married, and I ended up giving her the framed project for her first anniversary. This is one project I would love to try, but am going to have the common sense not to.
I would love to see pictures of your work in progress! Will you display it on your ceiling?
I ride horses (dressage), read and garden! I watch Fringe, True Blood, Caprica, Idol, DWTS, 24 and Dexter.
I love watching dressage and enjoy dabbling with it. Unfortunatley, my new boy HATES it - he sees no point if we're not jumping! Your horse is lovely, too. Love a big, classic, bay. Is he Dutch?

I have two other "loves", my two horses and my sewing machine. I have a Thoroughbred mare, an ex-racehorse, and an Arabian mare who is very old and a companion for the younger mare. These girls are my inspiration and so very beautiful.
My sewing machine - what can I say? I love sewing, I love making things, and I am trying to work on ways to stamp on fabric so that I can then make things out of the fabric. Working on it all has been loads of fun and I will share what I make one of these days.
Reading, Baking, Cooking, Knitting, Crocheting, Photography, ceramics and Batik. I also collect paper money and coins (numismatist) and I used to collect postcards and stamps (philatelist).
Too much stuff and not nearly enough time or money. *g*
My other hobbies are
quilting, sewing, beading, jewelry (love PMC) restoring furniture, needlework, home decorating (including painting walls....love to paint!)
I would love to buy and restore old homes but DH says "over my dead body" so I guess I'll have to wait for him to die.

Fun thread! I enjoy reading. I "can" crochet but I don't do it often.
I do collect Hallmark Christmas ornaments. I consider it a hobby because I obsess about it for way longer than Christmas. They start coming out in summer! I get as excited about it as I do the new SU catty!
I also love to work out and consider it a hobby because I do it for fun (what's wrong with me, I know:-). I lift weights, run and teach Turbo Kick group aerobics at my YMCA. I LOVE it. It's fun and I get to be crazy!
Oh and I love shopping, it's pretty much a hobby too:-)
I read like a fiend (do adult reader's advisory at my second library). I cook, and did catering for a while. Stopped when I realized that I had told my customer, "Eat it, or don't. That's the way I cooked it." You don't keep customers when you say things like that...
I also knit, mainly socks.
I paint walls--time to do the downstairs again.
I sing, but the chorale I sang with broke up. Waiting to find another that needs a first soprano.
I love to read, I love to bake, and I love being around flowers and making bouquets!!! I also have chickens as kind of a 'hobby' animal. However card-making is definitely my most loved hobby!!!
