I had a Stitch-in Tuesday with my EGA Brandywine Chapter members. Patrick has been stitching on this project with regularity, and it’s coming along nicely.

I can’t remember when I stitched Bands 5 and 17, but all Tuesday, I kept looking at them, thinking something wasn’t right. It wasn’t until I got home and finishing up the now bottom Band 18 that I realized I had used the wrong thread for Bands 5 (second from top) and 17 (second from bottom).

It really pays to start and end your threads carefully enough to be able to rip out without disrupting the adjoining area.

And, here are Bands 5 and 17 looking much better. Agreed?
