I am ready to scream. :doh: just making stupid stupid mistakes, I offically hate the letter"O". Stitched that sucker 3 times before I finially counted right, and you know how black is to frog out, still leaves fuzzies behind.
And I started the yellow dragon, THREE TIMES!!!!, finally got that right too, and it was just such a small area, with about 4 colours and the damn multi1/4 stitches that slipped me up.

Well, thanks for letting me rant, feel better now. :roll:

Your work is stunning! We all know how frustrating "getting it right" can be. Oh, I have a spot by my front door just waiting for that finished project!

Sorry you're having counting issues. I think we all have days like that.

It does look lovely though, so definitely worth it :)

Brilliant Linda! Looks so great. My chart arrived from 123stitch the other day, I'm looking forward to stitching it but I doubt I'd have bought it ifi hadn't seen how yours was working out.

It's been really good to stitch, (other than a couple of stupid miscounting on my part). . I am so glad I used evenweave, the 1/4 stitches would have been brutal using aida. (linen is a bit too pricy for me so I used the Tea dyed monaco)
