We will be waiting to see the test of the thread. It's gorgeous. Anxious to see how you like working with it. Hope it works out for you.

Patti, I LOVE your block and colors, can't wait to see the pretty threads in action.

Patti,

Don't you just love that thread? I went to the LQS this afternoon after a Dr. appt. & bought 2 more spools - yellow & light aqua blue. Now I have 7 spools to play with. I have decided to take out the block that is done so poorly & re-do it. Then I'll post the block.

Can't wait to see it, Kathy.

I just couldn't wait....so I hand embroidered the block last night. Mixed review for me- I love the look and it IS possible to just sit and sew with a hand needle (cross stitch needle) but you need to cut and use just short lengths at a time.

My hands are so rough and horrible that I keep shredding the thread. I told DH that I might have to wait for the weather to warm up so my hands heal (cold weather and my darn fingers seem to crack open- I hate it AND it hurts!). OR....I might try wearing those latex gloves as I have a big box of those that I wear when doing my nursing duties for DH.

Anyway...here is the block...

Oh, that looks BEAUTIFUL!!!!! Okay, I'm sold. Razzle Dazzle it is.

That is simply gorgeous Patti, love it.

Absolutely fantastic, Patti. It's beautiful, both colors. Anxious to see what you think about the variegated.
