Just completed! Fractal cross stitch

I just completed my first cross stitch project, and I'm really proud of it. The fractal design is my own (if anyone wants the pattern, I could find a way to do that somehow). I've always been obsessed with fractals, and thought I'd share as my introductory post on this forum. :)

It's 200x125 stitches and uses 13 colours. The picture is phone-quality, but I could get better ones if anyone would like a closer look.

Not really! The colours are much more distinct in the actual project than they seem. The contrast saved my poor eyes.

Pretty insane pattern for you to do first up! Love to see what you'd do when you've got some more stuff under your belt!

Wow lovely colours. My first cross stitch was a free kit of a fairy, couldn't be more different ha ha
