Letters and Leaves with Splendor~


Good morning everyone!! Just a quick post to show off the little sampler I made yesterday...I had bought some Splendor silks from Tommye at Angelwings Needleworks when in Southport the other day....not being familiar with Splendor, I wanted to make up a quickie to see how the cover. It did appear to be slightly thinner..but using 1 thread on 32 ct was no problem. I thought the coverage was nice...so just info I wanted to pass along....The chart is actually an old freebie I got from my LNS some time back as a compliment graph... Well, its tax free weekend here in the Carolinas so I am off to tackle the crowds, pick up a few things for Phillip and people watch!!!(Thats the best part!!!) Faye

You are amazing....amazingly fast!!! I am so jealous how much you have completed in the last few days. I wish I had more time to stitch. Your sampler turned out nice, I like the color you chose to stitch it in. Can't wait to see what's next. Have a wonderful weekend!!
