I see more Mary's and just cant make up my mind for colors. The latest pic added to Needleprint's site from Christine is just wonderful. Then looking at the others sent in, I saw Marion's (in greens & creams) and lost it.

I wasnt keen on using the original colors, had a conversion that used more muted colors in VC silks. And while getting my mind bent over what fabric to use, Im questioning the colors Ive chosen so far.

I do have plans to toss floss this weekend so I guess I will be going back to the drawing board with the floss as well.

Thanks for reading my rambles :o)  Its been great seeing all your updates.

My Progress as of 06/20/2009

HI All,
I'm Shay, in N. Texas I started about the 15th, this is my progress so far. I’m using the listed DMC threads on Zweigart 32 count Flax. This has been a real joy to stitch. I tis my first Quaker Sampler I look forward to many more. I maybe hooked.



Happy Stitching
Shay

Even though I already have way, WAY too many WIPs (most of them other Quakers), I can't wait to start Mary Wigham. I was out of town when the first part was posted so I haven't been able to print out part 1 yet, but I did find a 40ct Zweigart French Vanilla Swirl while vacation shopping. I'm planning on using HDF silks, but I'm tweaking some of the colors just a bit so the light colors show up a bit more and the brights aren't quite so bright. It may take me a few more daysso post pictures so I can enjoy vicariously!
