Good luck finishing Tigers - I don't mind backstitching, but it can be tedious.<br /><br />Oh, my Tanto organizer is on its way! My LNS emailed me and said she was able to get it no problem. Enabler!

But to be honest, that 25 count even kinda looks...'cheap' in the picture, the threads seem to be so thin with that much space between them...what brand is it? I'm doing one of my projects on 25ct (that came with a kit) and the fabric looks much more like your 28ct, quality-wise.<br /><br />I myself am a little torn on my opinion on hand dyed fabrics...I quite enjoy those with subtle color changes (like a marble effect), sparkle is great as well, but I can't wrap my head around more heavy changes...like complementary colors together in one fabric; in my opinion there are very few designs that will actually look good on such a fabric (or better than they would on another one).<br />Leonore Wintererhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07681857834221038780noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3166766145246861493.post-53375754076187830062014-08-05T14:24:18.196-07:002014-08-05T14:24:18.196-07:00You're welcome Carla. :-) I started this blog ...You're welcome Carla. :-) I started this blog because I thought people would enjoy it and it's great when I get feedback from my readers!

I won't flog you this time for your opinion regarding "other" fabrics as everyone has their own preferences and if that is what makes you happy and enjoy your stitching then MORE POWER TO YOU!<br /><br />Mother's Love has some very subtle but pretty colors to it and I cannot wait to see your new start on the 28 ct :D Your learning experiences are also helping me to decide what count to use for my HAED's when I get to them, so THANK YOU.Carla - Alaska Wolf Packhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15611728604335474120noreply@blogger.com
