Re Kreinik: I know I've come to this late, but I wonder if one strand of very fine braid and 1 strand of blending filament together might give the exact coverage? A true fiddle, of course...
Thanks for all the comments....I am going to persevere with this tho cos I do the design

The sparkle is the Kreinik thread, I am just using 1 strand by itself.
I know how you feel about the confetti but stick at it because his designs are beautiful and after all its the confetti sts that make them so detailed and gorgeous. I love your design
This is gorgeous!! I love the sparklies and I know exactly what you mean about the confetti but it's worth it in the end! I can't wait to see more!

Oh, that is fabulous! Really, really good. I know what you mean about alot of confetti stitches, my dogs project seems full of it, but I really think it's worth it when you see the design coming to life.
There's nothing better than a good friend, except a good friend with CHOCOLATE! Forget love! I'd rather fall in CHOCOLATE!
