That's why I'm waiting till next year to start it. Stick around the chat so you can listen to me "cry in my beer" when I begin the project!! LOL!
Timcdaniel- Thanks for help regarding what to use to keep the beads under control, Can you find it at a craft store? Since you've more experience with the Mill Hill kits, any other suggestions? I will be using a 28-count evenweave fabric with a comparable color, going over two, because I want a bit more toughness of the fabric than the perforated paper.
