I decided to switch over to 28ct Lagana, 2 over 2 instead of 25ct 1 over 1.... my eyes were getting too sore from straining so I am starting over. The last straw was when I made and error and nearly ruin my fabric trying to frog 1 over 1 on 25ct. I couldn't see the thread. LOL This is for my DH. He has been waiting patiently for me to complete. It will be huge when done. (56" H by 40" W) Wish me luck!

Help !!! Someone needs to convince me not to light a fire and burn my fabric. I think I mis-read one of the symbol and if so, that will be alot of frogging to do. One symbol called for 3834 and I used 3843. Maybe I should just abandon this project for now. LOL

Please don't burn it! I have to say thats my bigest fear moving on to more finer fabric than i'm used to! Perhaps put it down and do something small and then come back to it!

I have made some progress with my "Humble Adobe" but I am not able to post photo from my photobucket album to this section for some reason. :( I think u would be able to see my progress in my socialsue.blogspot.com though.

:applesauce: I went to your blog and I think you are making great progress. I love the colors. Are there a lot of shades of blue? Also saw your TOS there. I like it a lot too.
