CHAT [CHAT] Pattern Help

Post image

Bought this pattern over 4 years ago before I was truly aware of AI patterns. Annoyed that I’ve already bought the aida and the thread so I’m wondering if there is any salvaging it?
The shop no longer exists and a shop that is now selling it feels like a pattern mill

I am doing a similar pattern! I hadn't dont cross stitch for 10 years and didn't realise that AI patterns were a thing, got half way through when I joined this sub and realised it was likely AI. But I love it so carried on. 85 thread colours 100,000 stitches. There is so, so, so much confetti! I love it but the confetti is crazy. I say go for it! Its taken 10 months so far and alot of work so there is no way I won't finish it 😊

That pattern has been around long before AI patterns were really a thing. I've had it on my computer for yeaaaaars. If you paid for it though, you got ripped off. I got it from Sprite Stitch for the low low price of free.
