First off, I wanted to thank all of you who so graciously offered your suggestions, tips, or general commiseration regarding my organization dilemma. Yes, the battle is still being waged, but I have purchased two cherry wood lateral file cabinets for my charts which I love (just need to assemble - fun!) and a stack of Rubbermaid containers for my various flosses. Tomorrow the real fun will begin as I try to cram all my stash into these things! Ha ha ha!!
Now, today I have another dilemma that perhaps you can help me with. I recently purchased the new Shakespeare's Peddler chart for Sarah Chapple sampler, and all the flosses needed. I'm trying to decide upon fabric now. I originally had chosen Lakeside Linen Vintage Luna (40 ct) which I thought I was happy with. Now, I received a piece of Lakeside Linen Vintage Flagstone (40 ct) and I really like the color (pale gray/almost blue tones) and think it might be the better choice for Sarah Chapple?
Here are some pics. The Flagstone is on the left, and Luna on the right. Any feedback? Thanks once again! Kevin
The flosses really aren't quite as dark as they came out in the photo. Grrrr...
Here's the chart - the model in pic was stitched on R&R 18th Century Rook, but I honestly prefer Lakeside Linens to R&R fabric.
