what was the original colour meant to be?
It was a lighter blue, and done in beads. I changed all the beading to metallic thread, because I stitched over 1, and I had the metallic thread on hand. (I didn't want to have to search for and order and wait for the mini beads, or whatever they are called)

So beautiful :wub:
Is there any chance that you could frog out the discoloured white if Rose's suggestion does not work?

I definitely will try washing it, but there is a LOT of white done, over one on probably at least 28 count, and maybe higher. i wouldn't frog it... lol
