My first cross stitch project

This is a picture of the very first project I ever tackled when I started cross stitching. It is the piece I am the most proud of because it turned out so well despite not having a clue what I was doing. I stitched the piece in 1990 on 14 count white Aida. Knowing then what I know now, Aida would not have been my fabric of choice. But 14 count white Aida was the suggested fabric on the pattern and I had no idea I could use something else. Heck, I didn't know there was something else to use.
