Whatever it is that is going around, I've had it five times in succession and can't seem to get rid of it. Coughing too much to get much stitching done, boo, hoo. Just lost the "chills" and now I've gone the opposite direction--very warm.<BR/><BR/>I am totally amazed at how much you can get accomplished, and just how great it all looks. Keep up the good work. You are still inspiring me. Thanks for that.Debshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14607249729100121091noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822613.post-77777699449787647822008-03-02T07:03:00.000-05:002008-03-02T07:03:00.000-05:00Nicole, I just love this La D Da chart and think I...Nicole, I just love this La D Da chart and think I may have to order it as well.

Creme de Menthe was one of them. One skein was real dark and another was real light.

I am finding that more and more I am going to choose my own threads and fabrics rather than just blindly following the chart/picture.Kathrynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17968531508224415029noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822613.post-18298720844001236032008-02-29T22:32:00.000-05:002008-02-29T22:32:00.000-05:00I like the vividness of the Twilight with the Blac...I like the vividness of the Twilight with the Black Coffee, but I also like the varigation in Desert Mesquite.

I'm thinking you must have so many threads in your stash, correct?<BR/><BR/>Looks as though you've decided on black coffee, so no guesses there, but for the blue I would go with Brethren Blue. I have it in my stash and the colour variants are similar to what the chart looks like. First I thought Desert Mesquite also, but the lighter colour through it looks too pale. Don't you hate when the chart appears a different colour to the threads they suggest?<BR/><BR/>You know you're now going to get a whole lot of different opinions on what colour to use? You'll be more confused that when you started :)<BR/><BR/>What a coincidence, I've ordered some 35ct Straw linen too, so I think I'll be pleased with it by looking at your pics.<BR/><BR/>Sounds as though you're over the worst of your illness, I'm glad you're feeling much better.Janehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02420364501492449600noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5822613.post-52191662570238403962008-02-29T20:47:00.000-05:002008-02-29T20:47:00.000-05:00I like Twilight and Black Coffee the best.
