He is getting on absolutely beautifully -- it's really a very effective design with the wonderful shading! Do you find the similar colours confusing at all?

The colours are quite different on the bobbin but they blend in so well. The browns and creams in his face look surprisingly like gold dont they.
I am really enjoying stitching this.

That's just exactly what I was thinking. I am amazed that these 'non golds' when blended, look just so amazingly like it.

Looking wonderful!!
