Butterflies and company *finished*

Post by mauveme »

Doing a chart I found while stash diving, actually it is a kit someone sent me and I had the foss sorted and in floss bags and stored it in a tin forgotten until now. Started it on Monday, it's a terrible chart, full of mistakes, (like worng symbols for the large mainly yellow butterfly I just completed)

I like it. It looks like God dropped some paint on the butterfly. :wink:

Another couple of bugs finished, almost half way there.
\The beige on I just finished was listed as being the same colour as the yellow in the boarder, but the picture showed it as beige, had to use dms 746 for that one and another one I haven't started yet.
The yellow one with the green splotches, one wing was the bright yellow I used and the other was supposed to be gold, inthe picture they were both the bright yellow. Lord knows what else I will find. It's interesting to say the least/

I agree, and I think the design is pretty enough to make the extra effort worth it.
