I'm doing this on 11 count aida. It's 150w x 210h. So I guess that's 13.5" by 19". (Math isn't my strong suit.) It has 90 colors in it but it's bright so I'm hoping it keeps my attention.

Wow, this is going to be amazing. The colours are great. I loved that show, I watched it when it was first on TV and then bought the video box set. I've still got the soundtrack CD somewhere as well. I'll look forward to seeing pics of your progress.

nice pattern a lot of dark spots. does it show it lighter on the cover. i like doing pics of people only when the mood strikes :lol: my very strong passion is bears i was doing the international bears then when she brought out the couples version it messed up my pattern 1 bear only took 1-3 days depending on the hours you pur in. they take about 3-5 hours in total to make 1so now i cut what i did up into cards or i make a new one with couples on it. not sure about that project right now.... but your pattern is very nice looking

I'm using 3 strands. I would rather work with 2 but it doesn't work as well with the dark colors.
