Sampler aux Bouquets 3 and a Big Happy Dance!


I finished part 3 of Sampler aux Bouquets on Friday evening.  It would have been done a day or two sooner, but the frog paid me a visit and I was to anal to just fudge it, I have to take out two entire motifs to stitch them two threads over.....








Since part 3 is the last part, that means I have a huge Happy Dance!  This piece was stitched on 49 count fabric over two fabric threads with one strand of floss.  Lynn had converted it to overdyed floss instead of the regular DMC that the charts called for.  Since I had all the colors already, I used overdyed also.  This is not my normal style of pattern to stitch, but I really enjoyed it.

Simply beautiful! I have this in my stash but haven't started it yet. Would you be able to share the conversion to over-dyed flosses from DMC? I love how this looks. Thanks!

Put your right foot in...put your right foot out...put your right foot in and dance all about. Sorry, that is the hokie-pokie...but it is a Happy Dance none-the-less. Congrats on the finish. It is absolutely beautiful!
Take care,
Lisa
