That is such an easy mistake to make and I am looking forward to seeing it again with the smaller beads. :lol:

What a fabulous picture this is. Shame about the beads but easily rectified. Look forward to seeing it with some of the smaller beads on & then you will be heading towards total completion & framing. This is a beautiful design which has been so lovingly stitched. You should be very pleased with all the effort you have put into this piece. :whoop: :applesauce: :applesauce:
