Never be afraid to change what doesn't work ... or you don't like ... or stitches you hate ... or to colors that you prefer ... or from light linen to dark.
If the printer works, this will be the April box top ending before the over one.
I decided to not add Hannah's name since it's no longer what Hannah intended, and I plan on a small pillow for cupboard knob hanging and don't want it any larger.
I received an email from Barbara R with her method of over one. I asked to share it with you and she has agreed to send photos of it, her WIP, and hopefully a few other pieces of her work. She will be back next week so hopefully by next weekend I will have a post that may offer some help to those of us that dread and reject projects because of over one stitching.
Thanks for visiting ~ hope your week ends well.

I love Hannah! Sure hope your printer works and you can make her into a sampler box!
Marly, I really like your changes to Hannah. I always enjoy seeing how you take a design and make it your own.
It's lovely. I bet Hannah would have approved, especially of the two missing letters you put in.
Love Hannah and I would do the same with a chart that is not really me.
Greetings Truus from Holland

Really nice finish, Marly--I like the idea of keeping it as a small finish! Happy weekend to you!
You do beautiful work.
I love your changes...
I really like the changes you made to Hannah. Looking forward to reading about another method of stitching over one.
Your changes look great Marly! Congrats!!
It's such a lovely sampler, Marly! I love that you make changes when things don't work for you.
