I thought the peach and orange would be an issue. Focusing on one color or element in a design that I question is normal for me. But in this case, it all came together and what I thought in my color spastic menobrain may cause concern, turned into the best feature. Next time I will think twice about changing a color because what may not be pleasing when stitching that small area, may be perfect as the project continues.
Don't sweat the small stuff.
Lucy Beam or Gigi R will be next.

Love the color! I do the same thing about switching thread colors when I think
they don't look good on whatever linen I'm using. Have a great stitching day!
Marly, it is beautiful, lovely; congrats on a marvelous job
Marly,
Super job on the house! All your worries were for naught about stitching it.
Marly: It is perfect, I love the color changes, it reminds me of Chicago fire brick, from lite tan to reddish, so pretty.
Have a great weekend
Stay Healthy

I love the variation!
Love that beautiful red house, Marly. Enjoy your weekend! Cherie in WI
Your sampler is gorgeous. The house is beautiful.
It is beautiful and the house is more lifely than with a solid color.
Have a great weekend and stay save and healthy and enjoy your stitching.

Well done! Love all the red!
Some people have a knack and talent to choose the best shades for complimenting the design. You are so good at that - I'm learning and getting better and trying new combinations. That's part of the pull to stitch - relax, enjoy and feel good about the final piece.
Enjoy today - raining in my part of Ohio
The house looks great, Marly! Enjoy your Sunday!
A real beauty. Will you frame it? Would you share the color names for the. red and blue ( roof) that you used.
I am terrible are changing colors, so I rarely do it. Your changes look great. I love how you think ...what next. Be well
Agree! It looks great. I think the variation presents a very soothing effect.
Beautiful sampler Marly. Thank you for sharing the journey. So enjoyed it! SAH
Such lovely progress, and the variegated thread really makes it come alive!
Oh....yeah.... The variegation of the reds really is the royal icing on your cake of a house. Another stupendous finish my friend.... Why do I think I won't be as pleasantly surprised by my color concerns in the end?? Hope your mood has lightened a bit ~Robin~
Yes, that red is just perfect!!
It's perfect! I love this piece!
