I realize I usually write quilty content but I recently rediscovered my love of cross stitch.
I dug out an old Nora Corbett (Mirabilla) pattern to work on in the evenings as my hand work.
It is a mermaid and it is AWESOME, but daunting.
I am going to post this as a WIP and try to make progress.
I, just today, came across her Christmas Courier patterns and know I have to make Prancer.
My kids used to LOVE watching the movie Prancer.
In fact it is one of my favorite Christmas movies.
Here is where you all come in.
I am not a huge fan of stitching on linen.
I prefer the even weave fabrics when possible.
I love the look on linen but my old eyes don't do as well with it.
I love the color of the linen but there is a Lugana that is a silvery moon that is pretty too.
(Lugana is an even weave)
Here are the colors:
This is the one in the photo above Twilight Blue Linen
And this is the Silvery Moon Lugana
I am going to order but need to choose.
If anyone has any other suggestions of choices and where to get them that would be helpful.
Happy Sewing
