Fantastic Cross-Stitching Of The Solar System

I?m a huge space geek and decided to learn how to cross-stitch so that I could make space art. Over the past few months, I?ve been working on cross-stitching the solar system.

Each planet is 4″ in diameter and takes me around 3-4 weeks on average (at a leisurely pace). I?m creating each pattern based on actual planetary images. Once I finish the planets, I?ll be moving on to moons.
