I decided on Sampler Thread Brethren Blue and Weeks Dye Works Onyx. I'm stitching it two over two. The 35 ct. linen by Weeks Dye Works is really nice to work with so far.
I also decided to get back to Hanky Pysanky last night. I finished up the motif to the left of the big diamond.
Well, nothing else going on here. Watching all the kids today. My mom is sick now. I don't know if she has what I had, or just has a migraine. I told her to lay down and I would watch my niece. I may take them somewhere to get them out of the house. Write later!
Great start! And perfect choice of clours.
