It is a beautiful language. I love to listen to others speak it!<br />Love the pictures, and your sampler. It is looking Tres magnifique!<br />Take care.Lorainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16099740341363729893noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479870152494411695.post-8414121247516197922009-10-22T17:55:26.150-07:002009-10-22T17:55:26.150-07:00What a fun post, from France to the Farmer's M...What a fun post, from France to the Farmer's Market!

I was wondering how the over-dyed element worked if you were matching the silks to DMC, and when I've seen patterns listing options, I've wondered why there aren't two or more DMC threads listed for one of the over-dyed. I don't have your great eye for colour, but you have inspired me to experiment!

Whatever works, is what I say, and if someone doesn't have a shop near by or someone that is good with color, to help them arrive at a color conversion, then this is the best way!<br /><br />Lovely post!Janhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15385142157693309380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479870152494411695.post-55949652205515955932009-10-22T09:12:54.883-07:002009-10-22T09:12:54.883-07:00I do love the french for apples--and seeing your p...I do love the french for apples--and seeing your post reminds me that it is almost time to make some pomander (from pomme d'ambre) balls for the upcoming Holiday season. <br /><br />Thanks also for posting about your colour process. Having studied design post-secondary, I do have "an eye" for colour, but often find myself stumped due to unfamiliarity with the DMC palette--let alone all the glorious overdyeds and silks! As soon as that lottery ticket I didn't buy wins, I'm buying one of each, I tell you!Berithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02270446862298837353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479870152494411695.post-64039745261140420222009-10-22T08:59:42.114-07:002009-10-22T08:59:42.114-07:00Edgar-you visited Carcasonne, where the castle of ...Edgar-you visited Carcasonne, where the castle of my ancestors is!!
