For anyone that has completed this kit could you tell me a little about the colours of the threads for the mirror that Tink is stood on. In the pattern the colours are shell grey,of varying shades but the threads with the pattern are more of a bronze colour. Was just wondering if that is right as it is such a big area to stitch and didn't really want to do it and then have to undo it all.

Thanks for any help.:thumbsup2

Hi,
I finished it. I used the colors listed on the pattern, not any that came with the kit. You can see my finished piece at:

Hope that helps,

Thanks very much, they are the same threads that i have but when i looked on the picture it seemed she was stood on a silver mirror.

Looks lovely by the way.:thumbsup2

Thanks again for clearing it up.

You are very welcome...and I thought the same thing, but I think it turned out quite well. Have you started working on it yet?

[tashasmum]

Yes, i am quite a way through it but because this area is quite large i didn't want to do it then find out they were the wrong colours. I hate having to undo things, it takes longer sometimes than stitching it in the first place.:lmao:

Yes it does, and with all the tweading would not be worth it at all. However, I was thinking I may one day do it again as a gift and try to substitute silver/gray colored threads and see if I can come up with something on my own to make it a silver tray...as I also thought the picture looked more silver.
