I left a comment on Monique's blog asking her what she used on her Quaker Lady which some of us liked so much. She responded that she used DMC in these colors in case anyone wants to know: 612 (brown), 407 & 3774 (peach/coral), 3364 (green) and 926 (blue).
Here is my similar conversion tossed on Lakeside Linen's 40-ct Vintage Sand Dune. I used Needlepoint Silks 532 and 532A, 322, 344, and 903. I have a bit of something in a pale flesh tone I'll be using for the lady's arms and face.
I've had some arthritis flareup in my hands this week but hope to start soon. Thanks Amy & Petra for organizing this!
VERY PRETTY! Love your choices! :-) Hope your hands/arms feel better very soon!
ReplyDeleteOh no!! She had to break out the NPI - I'm in big trouble! Beautiful colors Jeanne - hope you feel better soon!
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know what fabric Monique used? I really like her choices.
