I, personally, would consider this quite difficult due to the fact that it is large, 100% stitching coverage and 84 colors.

On the other hand, I really like this pattern a lot. You might consider purchasing a soft color or over-dyed fabric and just stitch the actual picture -- not the background. I have never worked with overdyed. You would cut the stiching down a lot. I am sure that it would be beautiful.

I agree with Nancy that this is a difficult pattern. If you consider doing an hand-dyed fabric for the background you might want to look at some of the hand-dyed fabric from Picture This Plus that has many different hand-dyed fabric colors and sizes to choose from. I used a hand-dyed background on a pattern called "New Snow" and it came out very well.

Thank you for your advice. It's been very helpful.
