Pattern progress

Yep, the redo on the pattern is progressing. Slowly, but it is progressing. This is what it looks like so far after two days of cleaning. I still have a ways to go. Lightening the original picture in order to save details means a HUGE mess of random stitches that don't fit. But I've managed to drop more than five colors in the clean up. Yay!

The colors as they're shown aren't correct, but that's really just for myself. I plan on taking the original art with me to color match with the DMC threads in the store. Then once I have the correct colors I'll adjust the pattern.
