I chose to stitch mine on different fabric using different color floss for each one.
Birds
For this one I chose a piece of 28ct white Lugana and Sulky au ver a soie 100/3 silk floss color #010. I stitched two over two.
Alphabet
For this one I chose a piece of Picture This Plus 16ct Aerial aida using Victorian Motto Sampler Shoppe floss Americana Blue.
Floral
I again used a piece of 28ct white Lugana with Mo’s Murky Blue silk floss.
The photos really do not do them justice. Now they are off the Vonna Pfeiffer, finisher extraordinaire to work her magic.
