Tara,
I've done this particular project 4 times to completion, It has become a
family tradition in my family for the bride to get this from me. The first
thing I recommend is to do the white last. And I also used the B5200, bright
white, for the dress, made it stand out more. For the border surrounding the
picture, the gold one, I would use either gold floss and then go over it with
blending filament or use the skeined metallic floss, but I would stay away
from the spooled stuff it calls for. But if you decide to use the spooled
stuff, separate it into 3 strand and use just one strand. If you use it as it
comes off the spool, it is way too bulky for the rest of the picture in my
opinion.
As for the rest, it really does stitch up quickly. I have great fun when
stitching this pattern.
Other than that, take it one stitch at a time and count carefully :)
Diantha
