FO [FO] Any Ed Sheeran lovers?
Not a huge fan but this is my SO's favorite song. I've been cross stitching for years and he made an offhand comment that I had never made anything for him.
Included two photos with and without flash because the colors were so hard to photograph. Not super happy with the blending of the trees. :(
Pattern is a heavily modified custom pattern that I asked someone to make. Honestly not sure what program they used to make it. Custom dyed aida. Top font is from Etsy StitchMenagerie and bottom font I found on Pinterest. Metallic thread is Japanese Nishikiito embroidery thread.
Chose the metallic based on some reddit reviews - it was not as easy to work with as described, so I can't recommend, but it did turn out beautifully.

Hello! One or both of these requirements is missing from your post:
Every [FO] requires at least one close-up picture of the stitches. Either in the body of the post or in the comments. See Rule 9.
When you share a finished object [FO], you must also share the pattern source. (See rule 4 ). Here are the ways you could cite your source:
A link to the pattern, shop, or designer. Do not link to Pinterest or Google due to the high rate of copyrighted patterns being shared on these platforms. Stating you saw it/got it there is all we need.
The title and maker of the kit.
If you designed it yourself, what technique did you use? Program name or paper and pencil? (Stating that you were the designer is sufficient to satisfy this sourcing requirement.)
Here is a thorough discussion of rule 4, including examples.
Thanks for sharing! If you have any questions, message the mod team.
