The only problem with the over dyed threads is that no control on matching skeins. Hope you find a great blend of DMC. love AnnetteAnnette-Californiahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17875182288808015617noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-407963254674094722.post-46652611871428848012015-10-30T09:04:05.429-05:002015-10-30T09:04:05.429-05:00Nice stitching, I love the ABC .

It's a yarn that basically has two colors spun together to make one strand. I bet it would work great for Murphy's fur, but I doubt there's such a thing as marled embroidery floss. Ah well. Hope that wrist is improving.....Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03646028248366805686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-407963254674094722.post-7830164409499021902015-10-29T00:44:16.257-05:002015-10-29T00:44:16.257-05:00beautiful fall tree ♥beautiful fall tree ♥Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-407963254674094722.post-86480761314660730822015-10-28T23:16:42.790-05:002015-10-28T23:16:42.790-05:00Looks like you've gotten some good suggestions...Looks like you've gotten some good suggestions here for your dilemma Vickie!
