The Cirque des Carreaux looks awesome in that colour.

Sad about the thread....you think they would include extra skeins!!<br /><br />I'm not a coffee drinking, but that sampler looks cute :)<br /><br />Oh, no....falling into the video game trap! Lol If you are like my sister, you'll be lost to the world for a while :)<br /><br />That box sounds amazing. Right now I have three boxes of organized threads. It would be more convenient to have just one box like yours!!<br /><br />Have a great rest of the week :)Rachelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00074597722929095455noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663751962319871004.post-65548549204947033172017-04-12T11:42:22.751-05:002017-04-12T11:42:22.751-05:00Arghhhh.....the difference in the thread must be a...Arghhhh.....the difference in the thread must be a nightmare.....hope you can get it to where you are happy with it.

This wouldn't have happened if the thread pack had the proper amount of materials. :(<br /><br />Oh man, the thought of 200 WIPs makes my chest hurt, haha! My two new projects brings me up to ten total, and I swore I'd never get into the double digits again... guess I need to hurry up and finish a few things.<br /><br />I'm lucky, I can stitch during the day, so this blog probably won't totally die. But 100% of evening time is now game time... :3Rahennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13203395207339138306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663751962319871004.post-23584260030257206122017-04-12T09:11:34.138-05:002017-04-12T09:11:34.138-05:00My thoughts exactly - annoying but beautiful.

The Coffee Quaker is adorable, there's a big SAL group for it on facebook if you want to peek in and see what others are doing with it!

I don't blame you for not re-doing the whole border.. would feel like a never ending project!<br />Stitching on what makes you happy is the most important thing, so what if it's a new start? Some have over 200 WIPS (not me by the way), I'm sure you're not as bad ;)<br />Enjoy the new game... but come back to us with some stitching, eventually!Mii Stitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00208947393068786371noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663751962319871004.post-86306717634660651202017-04-12T02:49:04.839-05:002017-04-12T02:49:04.839-05:00How annoying!

I wish I'd gone with my gut and held off until I got the new one, but I thought it was just everyone else in the group having a better camera than me or something. Sigh. I know I won't end up redoing it, so I'll have to live with how it comes out.<br /><br />The part that's a real shame is that this wouldn't have happened if the thread pack had the proper amount of skeins in it, instead of just one of each color. There's no way anyone stitching with two strands of thread (instead of just one on say, 40ct fabric) can complete this project with one skein. So why does the thread pack for this SAL only include one? It makes no sense. :(Rahennahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13203395207339138306noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1663751962319871004.post-17984077031722845052017-04-11T14:32:20.423-05:002017-04-11T14:32:20.423-05:00New games will do that. :) Great stitching on ever...New games will do that. :) Great stitching on everything, and definitely important to stitch what makes you happy. I've had that issue with hand-dyed as well. Fortunately I had enough to stitch with one strand of one lot and another from the other lot once I realized, and then hopefully it will just look like that's how the colour is. Frustrating, but definitely not worth frogging all that border. Tiffstitchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17747755148727768850noreply@blogger.com
