don't like the monogram....

After a busy week at work, I found some time to stitch this weekend.  I have completed the queen stitches which are done with colored thread.  There are MANY more do do in ecru thread.  I did the monogram in the middle, but am not liking it.  Of course it is probably because my initials are MM, which are too big, and I ended up squashing them in there.  I usually just use one letter but I tried both this time. I thought about taking them out, but with the dark thread I'm concerned about it leaving a mark on the fabric.  Thoughts?
