Hi, here is my progress as of 4/5/09, i have finished the cream and dark gold of the dress, not sure if the cream will come out in the photo. I had a couple of days off from studying over the Bank holiday and spent it all stitching. It didn't take as long as I thought to do the cream as it was mostly in blocks of colour:

If you looks hard the cream patches are next to the yellow and down the bottom of the dress. It is very hard to see next to the ivory fabric but the next colour is darker so will stand out more. Happy Stitching!! :D

:applesauce: :applesauce: Looks great! It's interesting to watch the order in which you stitch. I have never tried stitching like that.

When I was out at my grandmother's today, I sat and stitched this. I thought I would share it as it is soooo cute:

Its just the way I am making sense of the pattern as it is a huge A2 sheet with three different colours for the symbols. I am a bit worried of missing something so I am trying to do all of one colour before moving on, although I think it makes stitching it a bit slower.
