Got one of my Edinburgh stitched panoramas printed this week.
I'm donating it to a raffle for charity in work.
But it looks great IMO so might just have to get one done for myself too!
Hopefully it'll attract a few quid from the rafflers!
Edit: Should give a bit more info!
The frame is 30” x 10.5” , print is 26" x 6.5".
This is the image:-

Looks great, sure that will fetch a few quid and a very generous thing to do for charity that IMO.

Fantastic
How much did it cost for the printing and frame if you don't mind my asking?
I've still had absolutely none of my shots printed yet!

Thanks for the comments guys, appreciate it hopefully the peeps at work will agree and buy tickets.
I feel better knowing it's not a duffer I'm trying to flog!
It cost about £70 with Parcelforce delivery. Reasonable I think although parcelforce do charge an arm and a leg.
Printed by togsprint near Leeds I think.
Very helpful advice and service from them by the way.

You should get well over £70 for that I reckon, a great shot well presented.

Just goes to show how much printing and framing can do for an image, the mat always seems to add something aswell. Let us know how the raffle goes

Glad you like it  , I really like the presentation and think double-mount really looks the part. I'll be doing business with togsprint again for sure.
I'm liking creating these stitch panos too and have lots more in mind - there's 7 hills in Edinburgh
Not very original I know, but I am just a techie geek!
