You make me want to pull them out and start stitching. <br />Shepherds Bush stitched Feast with one strand of floss, and it really toned down the colors. It looks amazing. I couldn't figure out why theirs looked so different from the picture, and so asked if they had changed the colors. She said that they kept the same color palette, but did one strand over 2, and it made it look like a totally different sampler. Sometimes I hate doing that, because I like the "bold" look, but I may try it on this one.<br />I hope you are doing well. I love the pictures of your trip! Keep them coming. <br />Have a great weekend.

And also--the pics are quite lovely to my eye; even with the flattening effect of the light you mentioned. A nice, neutral gray like that is perhaps the best light for seeing the "true colors" of things. (Sometimes, I find the sky is gray in such a way that it feels pleasantly calm and expansive; not oppressive or dreary at all. Do you know what I mean by this?) <br /><br />Of course, your stitching is also lovely! Seems you wound up getting quite a bit done. <br /><br />Somehow, I thought that "-Grist" was a form of "Christ"; so I felt a happy zing of satisfaction when you confirmed it later in the post; usually I spend my time learning I'm not quite so smart as I thought I was--so this was a welcome diversion!<br /><br />Thanks for the virtual tour writeup! Are food anecdotes going to be included in future posts (please say yes. :D)Berithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02270446862298837353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6479870152494411695.post-56441828441612381872013-10-03T02:43:56.706-07:002013-10-03T02:43:56.706-07:00Amazing pics!
