This is in my to do basket as well. It is a good spring design so maybe I should bring it out and encourage spring to come.<BR/><BR/>What do you have between your stitching and your Q-snaps? I have not seen that before and am curious. I just started using Q-snaps and I have lots of questions about them.<BR/><BR/>DawnAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-30823362950907978702009-02-07T16:33:00.000-05:002009-02-07T16:33:00.000-05:00Beautiful design by BBD.

I would never be brave enough to do a pattern w/ highlighting (good idea re: the colored pencils - thanks for the tip all you commenters!)... ok, so really I'm too ANAL to not stitch w/o highlighting.

Not sure how that always happens. Anyways, it was a bit tricky following the chart and all those Lazy Daisy stitches. Love seeing it again! You are making great progress on it.Katrinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17751627785449667223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-43453124246463832902009-02-07T08:28:00.000-05:002009-02-07T08:28:00.000-05:00I second the comment about not using a highlighter...I second the comment about not using a highlighter - I've made that mistake, too.<BR/><BR/>I'm sorry about the frogs!Susan @ Real Girl Designshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04668012534706415927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-32422906489628590522009-02-06T23:20:00.000-05:002009-02-06T23:20:00.000-05:00Sorry the frog came to visit.

I KNOW we can count, we just start counting at the wrong places! So anything bigger than 4" x 4" gets a working copy and highlighter.<BR/><BR/>My husband just cleaned out the garage (temperatures in the 70s) and I can't tell you how happy that makes me each time we drive in.

All you need is to drop that highlighter on your fabric one time (been there, done that) and the resulting ink splotch will consign that project to the circular file. The Voice of Experience speaks.<BR/>I would love to meet you sometime at HOS or Needle Nest, and maybe we could do lunch too.
