I'm a huge space geek and decided to learn how to cross-stitch so that I could make space art. Over the past few months, I've been working on cross-stitching the solar system.
Each planet is 4″ in diameter and takes me around 3-4 weeks on average (at a leisurely pace). I'm creating each pattern based on actual planetary images. Once I finish the planets, I'll be moving on to moons.
My progress so far... The Earth is next!
