Whoa, Nelly!
Remember that lonely Chinese housewife who spent six hours a day stitching a reproduction of a Song Dynasty painting? Well, it's been three years. She's done.
Yup.

Thanks for sharing this... wow, I'm speechless..
That is amazing!!!! Thanks for shaing this.
OH WOW!!!!! Wow! That is amazing! Is it cross stitch? Embroidery? Have to go look it up. Thanks for sharing!
Amazing. I'd have started it, all 72 feet of it, gotten a third of the way done and decided it wasn't working for me.
There's got to be a big hole in her life now though. Anticlimactic...
God Lord - my question is, why?
Yeah, I'm a stitching cry-baby. I can't even finish my so-called BAP.
Hmmm. I wonder what she plans to do with it? Maybe donate it to a museum? Looks too big to hang in a regular-sized house.
Wow! That is amazing. Thanks so much for sharing this incredible accomplishment.
Wow that is one person's work? Incredible!
Gives a whole new meaning to OCD. Reading about this makes me feel almost normal!
Wow! That's crazy!!!
OMG! That is one amazing piece. Imagine 6 hours of stitching a day! I am giddy at the thought!
So I showed this to Jeff and his comment was "Wow. Can you imagine how much that cost for materials?"
I do admire her. That's tenacity!
That is absolutely amazing! I wonder does she feel lost with it being finished?
Goodness! That is a big accomplishment.
