Thank you!

 And the decision ...

Legacy to the left of me,

Ale to the right,

Here I am - stuck in the middle with mine!

I like this result of a few Rit dips to a pinkish unwanted, my choice.  Today.

I wanted 40 count, found that my two Ale pieces in 36 were quite different.  Even choosing the less green piece, I wasn't happy with red thread choices after many samples.  This latest 3777 may work but I dyed a linen piece between the two considered and it is really nice.  And 40.  

The back of Nash's Mary Robards pocket will be started (not stitching the other side's alphabet).  Any of these pieces will be perfect for it.  But which one?

There isn't enough to do both on the same linen if I decide to stitch the back side of Ashmore.  I detest decision making!!!!  Robards is charted for Tobias, I have a piece, but refuse to cut a small from it.  That color was hard to find for quite a while and like every linen I see on videos and sites, looks nothing like shown.  I appreciate Karen Combs comparing linen pieces to others, even against white paper, we get an idea of hue and intensity.

Hope your week is going well.

So many choices but I am sure you will make the right one.
Did the hellacious storms reach to your house. It was BAD!

Not much help from me.... I do like the Legacy for Robards...and I kinda like the Ale for George and Hannah...although your middle dye would be nice too. I have a tendency to gravitate towards mottled I guess. Like Lauren said, your choice will always be perfect! ~Robin~
