It's looking gorgeous :applesauce:

I used Toasted Marshmallow on Coffee Menu and you're right, it is lovely. I think the designer for LHN has a real knack for putting colours together.

I saw this design in this month's The Gift of Stitching Magazine and thought it was lovely. I am stitching it with Dragon Floss Ice and Fire :wub: I am thinking about where to start in the pattern with regards to the continuity of the floss colour,I'd like to achieve a balance of the blue and red if I can. it is stitching up quite quickly.

That is going to look gorgeous stitched in that floss! I am a huge GOSM fan and love Helga's designs. Look forward to seeing the finish soon!

Very pretty! The two parts are sort of mirror image, aren't they? (well, rotated, but I mean they are basically the same) So that should help with getting the colours balanced -- good luck!
