I just now noticed I listed the wrong braid number in my conversion list. Krenik 152V vintage sienna use instead 029 emerald SHOULD READ Krenik 152V vintage sienna use instead 009 emerald. I apologize for not noticing my mistake much sooner. And, thank you for all the wonderful replies! This is such a positively reinforcing site and lovely users/ forum members. Bless you all!
To Seb0357: Is your avatar photo a Police car? I used to be a Deputy Sheriff and then a Police Officer. Pregnancy difficulties caused a need for me to leave the career, but I have fond memories of the brave & dedicated men & women with whom I served. My uncle just retired last year as a 25-year veteran (Det. Sgt.) and my aunt is currently an Administrative Major with hopes of becoming Chief in the next few years. My father was an officer prior to medical school, and two cousins are also. A family "tradition" to protect & serve. Both my marriages were to officers also. A more noble career than many people think. If you or a spouse (or loved one) is an officer...thank you for the service! :)
Yes, my home decor is largely done in dark-ish shades, so I stay away from the more pastel designs or colour schemes.
I have done "Angel of Summer" (Lavendar & Lace) as well as "Lady of the Roses" (Mirabilia) and "Titania" (Mirabilia) for my mother in Bermuda because she adores pinks & aqua. Just not for my own home LOL.
My husband has requested I re-do "Titania" for our home in more jewel tones. I am considering doing her in the colour scheme from Mirabilia's "Venetian Opulance" but keeping her more neutral wing colours the same.
