I purchased the pattern and used cloth and fibers that I already had. I wanted a more pastel palette since I live in south Florida. It also matches my decor. I used 25 count laugana and vineyard Classic Silk threads which are mainly used for needlepoint. They were the same size as the wool suggested and I like the sheen better. Washability is not a concern for me. Happy with the look so far.
What gorgeous colors!
Your stitches are beautiful. This is lovely in your colors. I’ve been wanting to try silk, but there are too many paws in my house right now.
Very nice. I am in Florida too it’s rainy here.
Beautiful! Your color-choices are wonderful. I always struggle with color, so I’m glad you post your work. Just lovely.
