Good Company

 
Good morning!  I thought I'd share an updated photo of Good Company.  Here are the particulars:

40ct vintage Pear from Lakeside Linen
Stitch count: 271w X 131h
Belle Soie Silks:  Mudpie, Attic Tea, Noir, Berry Cobbler, Cobblestone, Limestone, Wheatgrass,
Weathered vine, Sister Scarlet, Icing, Mer Bleu, Moss, Espresso, Enchanted Forest, Tortoise Shell;
Angel Blush, and Puritan Blue.

I actually used Malted Milk in the model, but I just learned that it is no longer available.  Angel Blush will work in it's place.  Conversions to DMC and cotton over dyes included.  Charts will ship this week.

To answer the question about the sampler rug.  I found it online at Sturbridge Yankee Workshop.

I love this! Can you tell us if there is over 1 stitches?

Yes, Teresa. The verse and several motifs are over one. I use a tent stitch.

Tanya, this was pretty when you first showed it to us, but even more so now that it's framed. You picked a beautiful frame and it really sets off the sampler!

I would like to stitch this using a Lugana with a lower thread count per inch. Any recommendation for a substitute fabric, including color?
