This is the first time I've stitched anything by Cottage Garden Samplings. I must say my finished piece greatly resembles the photo on the chart - the colors are very true (which is not always the case). The border bears mention again as it has several different elements and thus never got boring. I really, really, really like the snowdrops too. They use WDW 'Icicle'. A warning: The color dye lots vary greatly. My first skein was very blue and I did not like it at all, the next skein I bought had just the slightest blue undertones - success!
I'm in the process of kitting up "February's Primrose", and I've just received notification that the chart for "March's Daffodil" is on the way.
Nice work!
