Have I gone too far? What do you think?

Last month, Shiri, my lovely daughter, (the one who gave us little Nomi), said to me: "Just when I think you have thought of everything that can be done with needlepoint, you come up with something new!".  I wasn't sure how to take that; compliment, teasing, hint?  Ever since then I've become a little self conscious of my needlepoint endeavors.  I've been sitting on this one for awhile, a little embarrassed to present it to you.  However, today I'm taking the plunge.  






What do you think?  Have I gone too far?  Would you wear a needlepoint "statement" ring?  Would you stitch a needlepoint "statement" ring?  Don't worry about offending me, I can take it, (says she, terrified of having to take it). See you in the comment section...

Have a wonderful Sunday!!

Love it! What better thing than to stitch your own statement ring. There are so many possiblities for color ways etc.

I really like it, Orna, but it looks big and heavy. Can it be made smaller? It's a cool idea.

This is too cool! I think we have to disregard the well intentioned advice of our daughters!

I <3 it! Where can I get one? You're inspiring me to stitch more :)

I think it's a great idea, but I could never wear something that large. My hands are small, so I don't wear big statement rings. Something on a smaller scale, I might try.

Love it too. I want to know how you did it - and where to get the ring to base it on.

It looks amazing, for me something a little smaller/ flatter would be preferred, but I would wear that in a heartbeat.
