I learned this on Raise the Roofs Warm Water Wash. Where I also learned that newer Crescent Colors don't have much variation at all. Making the entire pattern a LOT more bland than the model. Which also led to my decision to never, ever use Crescent Colors every again, no matter what the chart says. We have lovely WDW and GAST and silk and lots of matching DMC threads. Why tear your hair out?<BR/><BR/>Oh, and Coni? Brown, if you want it, yellow/gold where necessary.

Now this poor designer at Prairie Schooler was probably sitting there patting his or herself (oh my.. which is it?) on the back because they had managed to do what so few do... stick with the same color palette for a series of designs. This poor designer was all warm and fuzzy with pride that they had done RIGHT by the stitching community by giving us designs that *gasp* MATCH.<BR/><BR/>And then comes Coni.<BR/><BR/>Hee!Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10400329036496106168noreply@blogger.com
