Dark and dull

 Just like me with a tan.

I wish I would have changed 3777 during the alpha rows.  I love that shade of red which usually shows its strength.  The darker linen is not allowing that and I would prefer a brighter shade.  Contrast with the fabric wasn't a consideration since this color has been used so often, but obviously it matters.  

Too late.  I could have changed to a brighter red for the motifs, but I thought the stitches being grouped would be better.

Eye doc this morning, he confirmed improvement in the dryness as did the doc that inserted the Prokera lens.  Still bad, but better.  The colored drop they use to test dryness would usually be washed away if the patient has tears.  Well, I gave people a scare in Walmart, because unbeknownst to me, my lens sucked it up since I don't have the tears.

Hope your week is good.

Oooo, I am liking the moodiness of the linen and floss colors (am I always odd person out??) LOL on the witchy eyes. Sorry, know the no tears/dryness isn't funny, but that color is wicked cool. Would go perfectly with my dress blacks for All Hallow's Eve. 🧙🏻‍♀️~Robin~

Hi Marly, your sampler is so pretty and looking good with the darker red. Good news that your eye dryness has improved. You do look like you’re ready for Halloween! I thought I could hang on to summer, but alas, fall has arrived in eastern WI. The temps are in the “60’s and the leaves are changing already! Take care....Cherie in WI

The red color is very pretty and I like it with this fabric color.
Happy to hear there is a little improvement with your eyes.
Take care, Truus from Holland

I think your sampler is looking so pretty. I am glad that there was a bit improvement to the dryness of your eyes. Interesting look with the absorption of the drop!

I'm liking the sampler as is.
Hate that you've faced so many delays in appointments, but I gotta say too bad it's not Halloween with the result of the drops. Though if it were, I doubt you'd get much reaction from people. Good news that there's been some improvement.

Your eye is something else!! How long will that last? I am loving your sampler just the way it is Marly - very pretty.
