its actually a dark brown (DMC 3371) but that was part of it, I did get quite burned out, but the biggest thing is that I got a virus in the nerve behind my left eye. it took a little over a year to get a diagnosis. They are pretty sure its the cold sore virus, but it could also be the shingles virus. I was on meds that dulled the nerve pain, but it was still there, like an itch behind my eye. It would get worse when I would strain my eyes, so I didn't do a whole lot of stitching, or reading. With Anti-virals, they suppressed it, and I'm totally pain free for now, but it could come back, but now we know what it is, so we can start the anti-virals as soon as the pain starts

I recall when you first started this one. I am so glad you were able to get it finished!!!!!!!!
