Thank you for the compliment. I just did a lot of research before hand for the best technics and went from there. But I would not recommend this type of gridding to just anyone. It is very painfully slow to do especially if you are very eager to just start cross stitching :P
so neat and awesome looking. i bought this pattern also from another website but i never thought about when to start doing it since all ive got is the pattern and need the fabrics too. but i do agree that stitching the face for soda characters take a while especially when you have so many characters in the pattern :)
