Fraternal Twins

I didn't mean to confuse anyone. The Ruth Bacheler that I'm working on now is actually the original one before I switched to silks. I changed a lot of the colors, so it's not exactly the same, which is why I was calling it Ruthie #3. I have been stitching on it for the past couple of days - I'm still liking it! In fact I got as much done as the silk one. Here they are together....

My Two Ruths

Ruth Bacheler as of 5/12/09

I'm still thinking about what I want to do with the silk one. Sell it? Save it? I don't know! :) My dh just shook his head today when I showed them to him. He thinks I'm crazy, but he also admited that he liked the new better too! Well, my ds is wanting to use the computer! Write soon!

  7. It's great to see them both in one picture. But I must admit that I love both versions, but this is a very personal thing. As always. I wouldn't know which one to continue with, lol.

  14. They are both beautiful and your stitching is lovely as always, but I like the one where you switched the best...if I had to pick. For some reason I like the addition of more blue in there instead of all the hunter green. BUT they are both really really nice!
