I have updated my For Sale page with lots of new items--check it out with the link at the top of the page!
Only my 2nd finish in 2013, but I'm proud of it...
L'Atelier Perdu 2012 Mystery Sampler-Patches of Life
This color palette is much softer and muted than I usually stitch with. But I decided to trust Natalie's instincts. A couple of changes-as I mentioned before I changed the large center motif to represent my 3 daughters and my 2 grandkids, I changed the lady's dress to dark blue in the bottom left corner (dh says that corner looks like 2 women-see what I have to put up with) , and I didn't fill in several motifs with the ecru background. I thought this linen was light enough. Great design, Natalie!
Dont know which project will catch my interest next. I'll keep you posted.
