I have tons of DMC too..I did worlds of cross stitch and have almost every color...then my Dad's wife decided to sell all of hers in a garage sale...guess what wandered over into my car??! :shock:

Patti---is that sort of like "look what followed me home?"

I am doing different colours on the blocks and my silk is running out again, so I had a look at what floss I had and started using that as well. So I have a lot of colours on this one.

Here is my #11. I made a mistake when I cut the big flower and had to change the block a little bit! LOL.
Also, I changed the settings of the machine for the embroidery and didn't come up neat but didn't have the "heart" to do it again. If I cannot live with it when all are done I'll see. This quilt is for ME; it will be the first one staying home.
