    I am thrilled to see someone do this "redwork" in purple!! I will be anxious to see your finished quilt.

    Thanks so much for the imfo!!!!
    Thanks from me too. I hate when I have to keep undoing knots. I am going to look this thread up. Jacquie mentioned that she was having trouble finding a light blue background. That got me to thinking. Could you use a blue background for the fabrics instead of white/cream and do the embroidery in white instead of red/blue/purple? Wonder how that would look? Hmmmm.

    What a great project. I have the pattern but never thought of using purple. You did a great job!
