Needed 3859 for the pale pink. The called for 4611 silk equivalent is dmc 407, could not see well enough. This is darker, but not enough to change the feel of the sampler. Still difficult on this darker linen.
Thought it may be higher than 40 count, but is not. I check count by running stitch over two.
Why not 36 count? Not interested in framing and want smaller finishes. And this scrap was the perfect size so cutting a larger piece was not necessary.
Hot today!
My fig trees have tiny little bumps! I think we will finally get a few fresh figs!
Enjoy your weekend.
