I stitched this darling little storykeep for my mom - she loves ladybugs. I stitched him on 18 ct aida with 2 strands for full crosses and 3 for black. I started him May 12, 2012, and finished him Feb. 27, 2013. He turned out beautifully and I finally got him framed - I'm looking at him right now on the wall. My mom was just tickled with him. There is a lot of 032 #4 braid (I'm weird, I love that stuff, even after this chart)- so that is something to be aware of if you're not a fan of #4 braid. But it really makes the piece. He didn't feel like there was a lot of confetti and the parts of the picture are very recognizable.
