    This is a fabulous take which I highly endorse - one, it's awesome thread, two, the fashion thing is completely correct. I interned at WWD way back when. You can track the colors with fashion seasons, but you'll find the closest match between Hermes and the 100/3 colors. Every Hermes bag is stitched with Au Ver a Soie silks, as are the scarves, and while I'm definitely not fancy enough to have Hermes anything, you'll recognize the colors when you see them. And try a #10 short tapestry point beading needle - the shaft is much thinner, which makes life a lot easier. Needles are very much personal preference but it's worth a try - and such a gorgeous finish, congratulations!

      Katie at WWD, this makes so much sense. I’m printing this and putting it on my wall. I love your videos, thank you for sharing your art. Can’t wait till we can be cool girls like Nicola with our scarves and matching thread.

    Caroline - I can see that you, Hermes, and 1003 silks are a match destined in heaven 😂 You are most certainly a fancy-girl silk couture stitcher!

    It's always a joy to watch you both. Had no idea we were in the midst of a fashion icon. 😂 Elizabeth, I wish I had your analytical mind. I always enjoy the pieces you present and talk so in depth about. You see things in them that I would never. I hope Amy feels better soon.

    Glad you have power back (I can empathize; I lost power for 13 days during the 2020 derecho) and that you had a good time stitching without electricity and enjoying the candlelight in spite of the storms. Love OwlForest patterns too! Although I had yet to get a kit, I have my eye on the mushroom, bear, and pickle ones (the last one due to watching you, Elizabeth!). I'm enjoying watching Carolyn exploring and discovering the super fancy flosses (which I have never heard about until now!), and I cannot wait for y'alls WIP parade! Looking forward to the potential pieces that may be up for adoption! I love adopting pieces so I'll keep my eyes peeled. Happy stitching!

    You are always quirky, indivual and charmingly memorable!

    Oooo, looking forward to the "stitch or ditch" WIP parade. I find it weirdly satisfying to watch people conclude that they'll never finish something, so why hang on to it, pass it on! Sorry to hear about your weather woes. Great job making the best of it! You guys really have a way of informing, enabling, and making everything interesting, so glad you're here!

    I love the mushrooms. I need to get an Owl Forest project! I’ve been monogamously stitching all month, which feels so wild.
    Thank you for reminding me of the embroidery project from 6+ years ago that I really need to finish. Embroidery is great for when you don’t want such a rigid project.

I found one in red at Shein and sent my husband a pic - and he asked if that was going to be my ugly Christmas sweater for this year! So glad there are people in the floss-universe who understand me. LOL

    Caroline, your finish of Emaline is beautiful! I can’t believe how quickly you did it! You know we have 100/3 and Soie Surfine at Acorns & Threads. We can set you up!
    Elizabeth, I love that finish with specialty stitches and crystals. Beautiful! That linen is probably Wichelt.

    • @Elizabeth-pj5if
      @Elizabeth-pj5if 3 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Oh man. Caroline might have a system, for floss storage, but I do not. Mostly it’s tucked away in little bags all over the place, and when I need it I run around the house pulling things out and getting frustrated, saying over and over to myself, “I really need to come up with a system for this!”

    I also found out the hard way that Got the Morbs is not a one skein pattern. I had stitched down to the last corner and ran out of a hand dyed floss. When I got the replacement skein, it was a noticeably darker dye lot. 😖 So I carefully frogged out the word Morbs, re-used that floss to finish out the bottom corner and restitched the word Morbs in the darker floss. Lesson learned! 😂
