Hi Asianne,
Am gathering materials to start this sometime. However, this is the first time I am sti ...
I am so sorry I am just NOW seeing this...I have had health issues (including a very devastating miscarriage...my husband & I were absolutely crushed to have that happen to our unborn little girl...even though he now believes we have our own personal little angel in heaven: I wanted her HERE) preventing me from feeling very creative. I am just now beginning again (now doing "Bluebeards Princess", also by Mirabilia).
For Krenik #4 braid, I use 1 strand. It is perfect for 32 count (even 28). However, some Mirabilia patterns do not use BRAID, but blending filament...in that case, it is 1-2 strands DMC WITH 1 strand filament. I find the filament extremely fragile and you want to cut your threads VERY short or they unravel & shred. The braid knots/ tangles easily, so I recommend also cutting much shorter than usual pieces. It uses more braid, but causes less frustration when it shreds.
Again, I do apologize for such an extended delay! Hope your project looks great! :)
Wow beautifully done! I am impressed! Bravo! Im sure your mother loves her and thank you for sharing your notes on the pattern change. Truly a beautiful piece :)
