I like the colors. I think you see them as dull because the fabric is so brilliant...

Well I did not get much time stitching on her this weekend. The house had been neglected for 2 months due to my illness and I just could not stand it anymore so a very through cleaning was in order. Plus there is a shake up in the craft room as well. That is on going so stitching this we will also be put on hold. I want to get the craft room worked out. Wow what a job. When it is all sorted I will post some pictures.

Anyway the bit of time I did take to stitch found me finishing the angel this one had quite a bit of BS. It needed it all those dull colors. Her name is complete and all I have left to stitch is the boarders. I did not enjoin this one as much as the others. I hope the last 2 will be a bit more fun. Think they will as they are much more colorful.

Photobuckets is being a real pain this morning so I hope this will work.

:applesauce: :applesauce: I think she looks very pretty. Dressed like a pilgrim for Thanksgiving, so I guess the colors are a bit on the duller side, but charming and fun on that great color fabric! Can't wait to see what you do with your craft room.

She looks great and given the muted colors, stitching her on the bright green was a brilliant idea.

She looks fantastic. And it must be a trick of the lighting or something but she looks like she just wants to pop off the fabric.

So now that the sewing/craft room is set up and ready I got in there and I got some finishing work done and here are the results. I will show the front and back of each.
Heather this one you may already have seen as I posted it when I did the finish but here it is again.

This is my favorite so far because it is my favorite color.

This one is a sister to the first 2

The one I am stuck on because I ran out of floss will be the sister to these 3.

These next 2 are sisters and they are my brothers daughters.

Now you know why I needed all of that material. I have 3 more of these bags to make and also 3 bags for my nephews. So lots more sewing and time is getting short. July is very close when I look at all that I want to make. :doh:

Well I think because these Dragon Floss are hand-dyed thread I do not think that there is any kind of conversion chart. Also no one local even knows about this floss so I had to just find a close sub from my DMC. Last night I went in to my room and pulled all the drawers out of my Floss Cabinet and started to do a match with all the greens that are close. I found one that I will accept but of course I see the difference as if it was :horn: saying look at me. I had to accept the difference or spend the time :anotherfrog: the entire boarder and I just do not have the time to do that. so here you go. Can you see the sub-color?????
