A Spring Sampler with EGA Brandywine Chapter

The 4-hour workshop for A Spring Sampler with EGA Brandywine Chapter on this past Friday wasn’t nearly long enough to get much of a dent in the piece! The original design is 12″ wide by 9″ high on 18 count. I’m doing 5″ wide by 9″ high on 18 count. As I suspected, the overdyed thread doesn’t have much variation in colors. Patrick and Nancy’s overdyed thread choices have good color change.

This center band is probably the most complicated band. It is a motif from a design class I took with Kathy Rees. I did talk through a few more bands, and we decided to wait until January for our next meeting.

I continued on the band as we watched a World Series without the Phillies.

The bold color is gorgeous.

Thanks. I am curious to see how this plays out.
