Letters From Mermaids-L a Cross Stitch Pattern by Nora Corbett

so beautiful,My Grand daughter will love this

This is stitching up so nice! It is going to be a gift for a friend whose name begins with "L". One thing to note is that one of the called-for treasures, Mill Hill 13004, has been discontinued. You need 6 beads, or two packs. I saw one pack at my LNS, but they will not be able to order more. Instead, I ordered similar Swarovski crystals (6mm blue margarita beads). Also, the hand-drawn placement of the larger beads and treasures does not show stitching underneath for some, but for others it does. I am not sure what I am going to do here. I might try to stitch underneath and see what it looks like. Either way, I want to be consistent. Finally, I haven't gotten there yet, but I will be stitching her with a darker skin tone and hair color to match my friend. :)
