New! The Herrschner's Worsted Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
New! We've just added the palette for Deborah Norville Everyday Yarn! If you knit and/or crochet, this is for you. This is a beautiful yarn with a nice feel to it, a good alternative in worsted weight acrylic! (Thank you again to BetwixtTheStitch!)
New! The Red Heart Super Saver Palette - thank you to BetwixtTheStitch!
Welcome to Stitchboard! Feel free to sit and stay awhile. Check out our new Premier features. In addition to the ability to create larger patterns (up to 500 stitches wide), illusion knitting and private labeling (no more worries about editing those pesky and messy PDFs), we've just introduced Filet Crochet, our most popular request! We have many more features planned, too!

Thanks Melanie, that's a great help!
I have found 97 skeins of DMC which I would like to use on my next project (if possible).
I'm sure there is a "stich chart" website which will incorporate my stock of DMC into the pattern but I can't find it now.
Can you help? or
can you suggest which blog I should use for this topic?
Many thanks, Dave
Hi.
Thanks for asking!
Yes, this is a change that I made recently because some users were asking about having the individual stitches removed.
I can now see it's a total user-preference issue. Some will want it one way, some the other.
I'm going to add an option in the blue "Preferences" tab on the left that will allow you to change the appearance of this image.
Actually there will probably be 3 options:
1. Show image as stitched (what you like)
2. Show image without stitch marks (what some commercial members have preferred)
3. Show original image (I'll just throw this in in case someone wants it.)
The #3 original image will be without stitch marks and the colors will be those from your original image and not those chosen from the program palette.
Anyway, please give me a day or two and I'll add this option. I'll post again when it's done.

Gloshei,
Welcome! What a wonderful and interesting name
you have!
What a wonderful and interesting name
you have!I'm sure your daughter will love
such a beautiful and thoughtful gift! 
In my opinion, I
don't think one necessarily needs to be an expert beader to do a
project like this. Though it definitely does require a LOT of
patience, as it's a super long-term project!
A suggestion I have for starting something so large is
if you'll be using even count peyote, to bead a number of waste
rows before you start your project. The reason I suggest that is to
stabilize the rows so that you'll be able to work from bottom to
top very evenly. I actually do this for small projects, so it
doesn't just work for large ones. Otherwise, I find the bottom rows
of any project can look wonky and unattractive, as I'm just getting
into the correct tension for the beadwork.
Best of luck
and if you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
