Good morning, y'all and welcome. No snow here yet. The grandsons are waiting on pins and needles for the first flakes though . Perhaps a flurry or two will come by the end of the winter season.
My fabrics are dyed and ready for the Winter Stamp SAL. I will be working on my individual stamps today.
Dyed with Rit Blue Denim |
The border on the large sampler is stitched, and it is ready to be filled with "all things winter. "
I stitched the border using DMC 930. Originally, I thought about stitching it in DMC 823, but at the time I could not find my floss. I do however like how the border has came out.
DMC 930 is used in the border. |
I will be stitching each design twice . Once in the sampler and the 2nd time individually. I will be making the individual stamps into small pin pillows . These pillows will be tucked in my Christmas / Winter tree or nestled in a dough bowl for the season.
Below is a list of the DMC FLOSS COLORS that I will be using for the whole project . If additional colors are added , I will let you know . I will be stitching along with you and I sorta fly by the seat of my pants. Hee! Hee! I am stitching my border in DMC 930. I will be making the large piece and each stamp individually.
DMC- Blanc, 223, 301, 347, 356, 469, 646, 823, 829, 930, 3345, 3346, 3371, 3781,
