Thank you so much.

My DH drove me to a nearby city for sightseeing and made sure to locate a quilt store I hadn't been to. His idea not mine. The owner had a beautiful quilt displayed and much to my surprise the whole thing looked pleasing to my DH (red/green color blind) even though it was pinkish with a very light cream colored background. It is a color palette I love and it looked refreshing to him. Sew! Now I have my colors picked out. Now, I need to get the fabric. However, I have 7 small projects before I can start. So, I will probably be ready by June. :-D :-D :-D I am a happier camper. Forty-eight hours can sure make a difference! LindaAnn
How nice of DH to be so thoughful to find you another store. And what a happy discovery about the colour scheme too. I would be desperate to get those seven (SEVEN?) projects done. What a daunting list.

I tried to add a couple more pics to my hand stitching set, and wasn't allowed to, so I'm putting them here in the hopes that everyone will find them.

This is what happens if the stitch is done the other way - it doesn't sit on the curve very well.
