Another question, is it OK to use a colored thread, I am using a variegated fall color thread on this. With this particular fabric it will be hard to get thread that wont be seen.

I know these are practice pieces but I would use a smaller print fabric for dress and hat...

Ok thanks I was thinking it a little loud. I have October and dont really want to do Halloween so was trying for a fall look. Will have to check out the fabric store this week and see what I can come up with.

I think I know what these are for..............and they are going to be terrific!!!! Looking good girls. Though when I see yours, I notice that I made a huge mistake on mine, now I have to anguish in fixing it, or not.

OH, awesome improvement! Not to say your first one was crappy or anything, but you know what I mean, LOL!

I really like the variegated thread choice.

Yes, if you are familiar with SBS, you will notice it. If you don't .....good, because it will take too much work to change them............. :roll: I do have a few more things to add on the block, but just doing a little at a time. You know how those 'other projects' just jump in ahead!
