Fljotsdale - it's actually White fabric! lol I think just the lighting in my room has made it look a different colour.

I do have some light pink thread though, would you all recommend using that to give it a little more colour? Or stick with the design?
Oops! :oops: :lol: Anyway, personalising the roses works for me! Backstitching will make all the difference! Looking great! :D :applesauce: :applesauce:

Really, though, what is with the eyes?

Are you sure you are looking at the eyes? The eyes are the two little dots just above the blue nose. The boy teddy has the exact same thing. I suspect you may be seeing the patch as a nose, and the stitched effect on each side as eyes! :wink: If so, I can see exactly what you mean! :lol: :lol:

Thanks everyone :) I won't get to stitch this much - if at all! - for the next few days as I have a lot going on with work/college/studying! But hopefully by the start of next week I will have finished the bride, and some of the groom's backstitching :)

Spent lastnight and today working hard to get this finished, and it's done!!! I'm so happy with how it's turned out and look forward to framing it and seeing their faces when they receive it :)

Here's the final update pic:

And I even started on my next project today, so will start a new thread for that :)
