Lizzie was started on 32 count PTP Legacy with two dmc threads. All colors except two. The 3782 is too light and will change to slightly darker.
The 730, one of the colors that I dislike in any project, is very close to 3011. Difference is in the yellow hue and after stitching and trying to accept the 730, will remove and replace with either 3011 or 3012. Both suitable.
The detached end of the band is the 3011, not a noticeable change, but not as harsh. Softer green. This will be a nice project, free of my usual nitpicking now that this easy option is settled. One error so far and there it will stay.
Warm weather, meeting Carole at cardiologist this afternoon. Routine appointment but she is uncomfortable in any office/waiting room alone, feels vulnerable. I'm assuming her massive chair will maneuver the turns and doorways. She should use the manual wheelchair during visits but can't push easily on carpeting. We have limited workers everywhere and they don't accompany patients as before, just drop them off at the door and pick up when they can.
Scalloped potatoes and ham last night. Using a measured recipe now, so easy.
Have a sweet day folks.

I like the more muted tone of your green - I see the change and love it, but I just don't see colors like you do so would never have thought to change things up. Love scalloped potatoes and ham - it's long been on of my go-to's. ~Robin~
I vote for 3011!
Hope all goes well with Carole's appointment.
More good wishes for Carole's appt. Plus thoughts for you as always.
Scalloped potatoes also sounds really good!
Your start is looking good and enjoy your stitching.
Hope Carole's appointment is going well without troubles.
Take care, Truus from Holland

Lovely start on Lizzie! I usually go with 3011 if it calls for 730. Hope Carole's appointment goes smoothly for her and for you.
Great color changes, the stitch is so pretty. Hope Carole's appointment goes smoothly for both of you. Ham and scalloped potatoes, is this a recipe? If so would you share?
