Just got back from the craft store and after 30 mins of agonising and looking suspicious near the floss racks i think i've gotten some colours that match. Will start on it tonight!
That always happens to me too when I go to look out replacement colors.
I'll spend ages near the racks taking out and replacing skeins of floss. Not to mention that I'll also be rooting around in my bag for my flossholder to compare the new colors to those I already have. >>
I've gotten funny looks from the lady at the counter before. (Luckily my local store has proven very friendly regardless.)
But anyways, the new colors look lovely. ^^
It looks like a lot of work to get all that sand in correctly, but I bet the end result will be amazing.

Lol yes that's what i was doing in the store as well, pretty shifty looking but no one said anything so it was probably just in my head
Thank you!

I do find on occasion you have to switch colours, guess that's just the way it is.
Anyhow, on to mor important things
FANTASTIC!
I know with big projects it's hard to see progress somedays (especially with lots of colours) but it's looking great!

That looks great. Want to send it to me when you're done?

What are the black threads on the right side of the cross stitch?

Looks great! I'd love to do a cross stitch VG map of some kind eventually. What are the dimensions of this?
