Mystery Solved

After a morning of playing "Sherlock Holmes," I figured out the mystery "brown."

It is DMC 420, yay!

I am back in stitches and rolling along once again.

Thanks for listening, and sorry for the interruption!

  2. Thanks Babs, me too! :)

    That was one of those...doh! moments where I realized that I had blown it :) But thankfully it all worked out ok, and I now know every brown shade and it's number in the DMC color chart :)

  5. Glad you found the right color Karyn. Last month I lost my last length of particular dye lot in silk - ended up finding it in the vacuum cleaner bag! I accidentally vacuumed it up. But it was none the worse for the wear afer I wiped it off with a damp paper towel LOL. Only a stitcher would understand.....

  6. I don't feel so bad now! LOL I had part of a flower done from a couple of months ago. Last night I started back and used the color I *thought* was the one I was using. Turns out by looking at what I posted here that I was using is not the color I started using....go figure! But it looks the same to me lol
    I'll move on and see if I notice a difference later.
    Glad you figured out the color you were using.
