If you're buying this because you like the pastel look and detail of this pattern then don't buy it because the finished work doesn't look anything like the picture you're seeing. They should really put a picture of what the actual needlework looks like because there is a drastic difference. The actual work is not as well defined as the picture shows and the colors are much darker. The bird on the top of the head is not at all as clear as the picture and the arms and button are not well defined. I'm ok with the picture because I do like the darker colors but I really was looking forward to the more pastel range. If I do this pattern again, I will pick my own colors to use. If it had looked like the picture it would have been a 5 star rating.
