Past, Present, Forever Cross-Stitchers...

Anyone completed this one yet? I have a question...

On the pattern, for the castle windows, is a "4" symbol, which says corresponds to thread # 741 which is tangerine. Is this really right, it looks very strange and too bright orange. In the picture, it's hard to tell, it seems more yellowish. Did you use the orange or did you change it to some other color?

Thanks!

How many stitches across is it? SOmetimes the color may seem off but if it only a small area it will fade in and just give a hint of color.

It's only a couple small areas, 1 x 4, two 2 x 4, and a 1x3 area, I did stitch one of them in the tangerine and it looked really bright and not appropriate for the rest of the piece. I took it out and thought maybe they made a typo and it was supposed to be 742 which is a yellow, but that looked too bright too. So that's why I decided to ask.

I have completed this one many months ago and stitched it in the tangerine colour given. When the piece is completed it does blend in with the other colours. I have posted a picture of this one in another thread but cant remember which one, think it could be one to show others what you have done.
