i'm stuck between two things...but leaning towards one of them more, so i'll probably end up with that one. i'm still working on the pattern, which i'll be done with today, and going shopping tomorrow, then i'll be able to get started!

Pattern's done, shopping's done (my local shop was out of 4 floss on 39 color, lucky me!), started the first stitch today
I'm a little bit disappointed with the color the program took for me but i'll see how it's going by stitching!
3 days week-end ftw, i might make a lot of it in my week-end

As I've been working on pattern(s) with KG Chart, I've noticed the colors they pick suck sometimes. Also, when making a pattern, don't trust what shows up on the screen...they hardly match. I usually have a DMC color chart on my screen as I'm making patterns and look for the color I want on DMC, then find the number in KG Chart. It seems to work out better for me than trying to trust KG Chart to pick the correct color.

I'll keep that in mind next time
thank you
