I love dark fabric very much but I definitely need my magnifier and a strong light source. But the results ar always great, like your mermaid.Brigittehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03922122091202289138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709631.post-16617660040406850152013-06-13T09:54:12.528-04:002013-06-13T09:54:12.528-04:00Your mermaid looks great on the dark fabric.

It really makes the colors stand out. And there is always one in the crowd isn't there? I'm getting to the age when people say things like that to me it goes through my head that it's good luck that I don't take a swing at them!!

Imagine if YOU were the one making a comment to her about stitching on a dark fabric. <br /><br />I usually LOVE how darker fabrics look, but I don't enjoy stitching on them. I leave that to my husband. He seems to love it.Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17432778814708875811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5709631.post-66581166564100157632013-06-10T19:39:20.521-04:002013-06-10T19:39:20.521-04:00Great progress on the mermaid Nikki.

How great to have the perfect magnifier setup at the library.<br /><br />As for the witchy woman... I say cut her some slack. I know from experience that when you get old something always hurts and puts you in a bad mood. I can't control my mouth in those circumstances either.

I bow my needles to you, I'd never be able to see 40 count, even if I used the Hubble Telescope! <br /><br />Ok, even I (who just happens to be so old that there is dirt younger than me) can clearly see this is not black fabric. <br /><br />And I agree....who exactly did teach this lady (and I use that term loosely) her manners! <br /><br />I am looking forward to Stitchy Mc Floss https://www.blogger.com/profile/00562041622656969121noreply@blogger.com
