Sorry everyone. I should have thanked you all for your comments. I;m new at this.

Hi Cheyenne Pony

Thanks for the info I will try and see if I can find Enchantress from the SAL.
I am enjoying it, it the colours are lovely. If I ever did it again I would do it all using 2 strands. There are so many variations in strands for this kit. Some stitches are 3, some are 4 and some 5 ...

Hi squirell,

Pretty wild here too today. But that just means I can sit and stitch all day.

Hi and thankyou. I only joined yesterday so still finding my way. Well I certainly have done my fair share of frogging then. What are you currently working on? I am part way through Woodland Enchantress and have about 15 kits waiting.

Has anyone ever completed Woodland Enchantress. Dimensions Gold Collection? How did you find it? I am dissapointed in the quality of the thread.

I'm currently battling my way through Woodland enchantress. I recently tried gridding for the first time and it has made it a lot easier to stay focused. I can't wait to finish ir.. so many more to start.

I have only just started gridding and can't beleive the difference it makes. So much quicker.
