Hey, Friends!
A couple of updates on my current Blackbird Designs SAL projects.
This is the current status of Winter Wonderland (below).
When I was taking pictures of my BBD Snow Garden with the chart, I noticed how much more silver some of the threads had in them in their photo compared to my actual threads. I also noticed when I was choosing threads from the rack that there was a lot of variation between skeins. Have you noticed this too? It could be the dye lot, or the amount of variation in the dying process, but there can be a lot of difference. Do you think it has made a difference in which fabric you chose or how your project turned out?
Asking that question reminded me that I don’t believe I shared the Poll Results from the standing frame holder question a while ago. And now I can't find the details, but apparently most friends here don’t use one.
I've decided to post my TUSAL updates in the side column this year. See à
Thanks for coming by today. I look forward to hearing your Needler’s Point and checking in to see what you’ve been up to lately!
PeaceëLoveëJoy and Happy Stitching

You've made great progress on both designs. They are both fantastic but I'm really into winter patterns right now so I can't wait to see Winter Wonderland when its complete.
ReplyDeleteHappy Stitching!
Both of your SAL look awesome. Working in an LNS I can say that I have noticed the difference in skeins of the overdyed thread...sometimes a BIG difference...almost not even the same color. Also, photos of the project on the leaflet can be WAY off in color. That being said...I thought I would show you my take on Winter Wonderland. You can see it on my friend Julie's blog. http://crossthatleg.blogspot.com/
