will be the plan for Kezia. Oh that border. Not my cup of tea, not sure of the method I should use. I wanted to complete the entire vine outline and return to fill with the motif, but don't have enough confidence. If I complete several sections at a time, it will be easier to catch placement errors. The vine alone has no reference and I am fairly sure there will be errors. Yes, I changed the crown and a few stitches in the vine for symmetry.

You can see how much green is in the Affogato piece. Kezia, like Jane, recommends Cocoa linen. I do think this one would be better on a lighter linen but would need to change the 739 in the border. I purchased a piece of Old Gold linen and it is very dark, greenish gold. I have a few others coming and wonder if they will be worth husband's $$ win on the #12 green.
Not sure how much longer I will stitch on Kezia before returning to Ann or choosing another. Who am I kidding? A few more vine bumps and I'll be ready for a walk.
Have a safe and peaceful day.

Hello Marly: I do like the border, very interesting, I am like you I take a border a little at a time.
I do like the fabric color; it gives a bit of vintage look for me.
I hope you are having great weather and enjoying the day.

Ya know, I wanted (and bugged) you to do Kezia so I could pirate some of your what I know will be brilliant modifications but now I am having twinges of regret. I am still certain your modifications will be brilliant but I am thinking I am going to regret what I chose for linen and will love your color combos better. Nope...not going there....I am not THAT bad of a pirate. Besides, I will indubitably forget the method to your sure-to-be perfect madness by the time I swallow the Kezia pill. (Seeing that border up close and personal is already making me queasy...and I was seriously thinking of doing the over 1 version?? HA!) ~Robin~
